Architectural Design & Planning
Concept to completion
Survey Inspection
Before starting any home renovations, your surveyor will carry out a survey on the property. This is the first step in the journey towards making any structural changes to your property and one of the most important, as it offers an overview of the quality of both the property and land. At Vullcan we pride ourselves on ensuring that every detail of your project site is accounted for in the planning and design phases, making sure you’re fully informed.
Architectural Drawings
At Vullcan we understand that adding an extension or loft conversion can maximise both the space and value of a property. Our architectural drawings can help to enhance the creative potential of your design, and ensure that the space is utilised to its fullest potential. We help with every aspect of the process, from discussing initial details, to submitting the final plans for consideration. With a 96% approval rate, Vullcan can help turn your dreams into reality.
Planning Granted
Following the design consultation, we provide the initial draft plans by the agreed deadline, which may include 3D plans if selected. Upon your approval, we proceed to submit the plans to the council.
Building Regulations
The Building Regulations set minimum standards for the strength of the structure, but also its thermal performance, fire safety, internal measurements, accessibility to disabled people and drainage capacity.
Structural Engineering
Structural Engineering covers the methods used to dig foundations, any structural works, supporting walls, beams, joists, rafters, load bearings and/or concrete reinforcement and any other materials to be used.
Scope of Works
Scope of Works is a detailed and essential document for tendering. It outlines the specific tasks and deliverables that need to be completed for a construction project. By having a well-defined Scope of Works, all parties involved in the construction project can have a clear understanding of the project requirements and expectations, which helps to minimise misunderstandings and most importantly extra costs.
Project Management
The construction project manager is the person responsible for overseeing all aspects of a construction project, from planning and design to execution and completion. They are responsible for ensuring that the project is completed on time, within budget, and to the satisfaction of the client. A Vullcan project manager plays a critical role in ensuring that a construction project is completed successfully!

faq
What is the typical timeline for completing a residential project?
The timeline depends on the size and complexity of the project. On average, it can take anywhere from 6 months to over a year for larger or custom homes. We provide a detailed schedule and keep you informed every step of the way.
Do you handle planning permission and permits?
Yes, we manage the entire process of obtaining planning permission and securing any necessary permits. Our team is familiar with the local building regulations and ensures compliance with all UK laws.
Can I make changes to the design once the project has started?
We understand that changes may be necessary, and we are flexible. However, changes after the project begins may impact the timeline and cost. We’ll work closely with you to assess any adjustments and their implications.
How do you ensure the quality of construction materials?
We only work with trusted suppliers and ensure all materials used meet the highest standards for durability, safety, and aesthetics. We are committed to using the best available products for every part of the project.
What happens if there’s a delay during construction?
While we aim to stick to the original timeline, we understand that unforeseen circumstances can arise. If a delay occurs, we’ll communicate with you immediately and work to resolve any issues promptly.
Do you provide post-construction maintenance?
Yes, we offer post-construction maintenance services, including repairs, upgrades, and regular checks on systems like plumbing, electrical, and HVAC. Our goal is to ensure your new home stays in excellent condition for years to come.
