Homes and planning in Essex

Leigh-on-Sea is handled by Southend-on-Sea City Council, Brentwood by Brentwood Borough Council and Chelmsford by Chelmsford City Council.

Leigh Old Town is a conservation area with an Article 4 direction, so even minor exterior changes need a planning application. Brentwood's council says Green Belt covers 89% of the borough. Talk to us about your address and we'll tell you if we can help.

How we work

Our in-house team does the measured survey, drawings and the planning or permitted-development application through Plan It, then manages the build with a single project lead. Typical build times: rear dormer 10–12 weeks, L-shaped dormer 12–14 weeks, mansard 12–16 weeks, rear extension 12–16 weeks.
