Planning and Building Advisory
*NEW LAWS FOR PLANNING PERMISSION*
Due to the current COVID 19 circumstances, new laws have passed that allows homeowners to add 2 additional storeys to their home or to create new homes by demolishing and re-building vacant properties without the need of full planning permission. The latter applies to commercial buildings too as the idea is to revitalise our town centres and high streets.
This has removed a costly and time staking procedure with a new, speedy approval process for people looking at renovating their property to create more living space, or even people wanting to build a brand-new home.
What's stopping you from taking the next step to creating your new home or commercial property?

Testimonials
“We were very happy with the work carried out by Ben & the team. Professional from the start, they took notes & photos on our initial discussions to provide a fully inclusive & comprehensive quote unlike many other companies. They may not be the cheapest but you pay for quality!”
Frances Bover
“We couldn't be happier with Wattsfield Construction and the work they did on our home. They built us an extension and fitted a brand new kitchen, all of which has been finished perfectly. Ben and the team were always on time, worked really hard and kept everything very clean and tidy. Highly recommend their services!”
Steven White
“Delighted with the work provided by Wattsfield Construction. Everyone on site were very polite, hardworking and tidy. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to family and friends.”
Emma Hanton
“I have no hesitation in recommending Wattsfield Construction who completed a ground floor extension for us in 2014. We have since provided references for other projects and potential clients have been on site to see the build. ”
Martin Crook
“We’re so pleased we went with Wattsfield Construction who renovated our downstairs living space and re-fitted our kitchen. We are over the moon with the end result and the whole process was relatively quick and easy. The team were always on time and worked very hard whilst on site.”
Matt & Tina Clark
“We used Wattsfield Construction when we bought our house, it needed modernising throughout. They plastered every wall, ceiling, fitted a new kitchen and two new bathrooms. They were so committed day in and day out and every little tweak we made, they just got on with it! They had loads of ideas and we now have the most amazing house. A big thank you to Ben and the rest of the team”
