If you’re considering extending your home in Brentwood or Havering, you may have seen the latest editions of Extensions – the official homeowners’ guides produced by Brentwood Borough Council and the London Borough of Havering.

We’re proud to share that Architectural Hub features within these publications. They are guides designed to help local homeowners understand planning permission, building regulations and the process of extending with confidence.

Being included reflects what we focus on every day: designing your dream home for your family’s tomorrow.

Extensions Publication by Havering and Brentwood Council

An Extension Is More Than Extra Space

When you extend your home, you’re not just adding square metres. You’re creating space that works better for your life.

That might mean:

  • A kitchen that becomes the heart of the home
  • An open-plan layout filled with natural light
  • An additional bedroom for a growing family
  • A dedicated workspace that supports your future

A successful project starts long before building work begins. Careful, considered design makes everything smootherfrom planning approval through to construction.

Strong drawings and well-prepared plans help you:

  • Navigate planning requirements with clarity
  • Meet building regulations confidently
  • Avoid unnecessary delays
  • Reduce costly changes later

At Architectural Hub, our role is to provide you with a solid foundationclear, compliant, and practical designs that turn ideas into approved plans.
