CONTEMPORY HOUSE by The Plans Company architects
About Us

The Plans Company was created to offer affordable planning drawings and to make the process easy.
We are qualified, registered UK architects based in the UK and have been specialising in home extensions since 2013. We have extensive experience with a wide variety of different projects focusing on residential extensions but also commercial projects, swimming ponds and specialise in listed and conservation area properties.
We believe we can create inspirational spaces for all and challenge the notion that architectural designed homes should cost the earth.
The Plans Company was founded in the UK in 2018 in order to create quality planning application drawings at affordable prices.
How It Works
You send us some pictures of your house, measurements and simple brief of your ideas.
You should be able to take the measurements yourself with some simple instructions from us. Alternatively, we will arrange for a local surveyor to visit you.
We then draw up some plans and present them to you for comments and ideas which we can amend accordingly.
Once agreed we submit the plans to your local planning department for you.
We can also draw you plans for projects that don't need planning consent such as room conversions or permitted development projects.
