FREQUENTLY ASK QUESTIONS (FAQS)
What makes The Alpha Studios different from other firms?
We combine over a decade of design experience with project management expertise. Our approach is grounded in clear communication, thorough knowledge of planning policy, and design solutions that balance creativity, compliance, and client goals.
Do I always need planning permission for my project?
Not always. Some smaller works can fall under Permitted Development rights, meaning you can proceed without a formal planning application. However, in areas with restrictions such as Conservation Areas, Listed Buildings, or properties with Article 4 Directions you will usually need permission. We can advise you on whether your project qualifies.
How long does the planning process usually take?
For most householder applications, councils take around 8 weeks to decide. Larger or more complex applications can take longer. We manage the process on your behalf and keep you informed throughout.
What If My Application Gets Rejected?
Our team will work with you to revise the proposal or submit an appeal if needed.
Can you help with planning appeals if my application is refused?
Yes. We have experience preparing planning appeals by carefully addressing refusal reasons, referencing relevant policies, and strengthening the design case. Many refusals can be overturned if approached strategically.
Do you work on both residential and commercial projects?
Yes. We provide architectural design, interior design, and project management services for both residential and commercial schemes. This ranges from home extensions and loft conversions to mixed-use developments and office fit-outs.
What are Building Control drawings, and when do I need them?
Building Control drawings provide the technical detail required to demonstrate that your project complies with UK Building Regulations. They cover structure, fire safety, insulation, drainage, and other technical aspects. These are required once planning permission is secured and before construction begins.
What is a Design and Access Statement, and why is it important?
A Design and Access Statement (DAS) explains the design rationale for your project and how it complies with planning policy. While not required for all applications, it can significantly improve your chances of approval by showing how your design responds to context, amenity, and accessibility.
