OUR MISSION

LDV Architecture’s mission is to navigate its clients, safely and successfully, through the perilous waters of any construction project. Our services cover all stages of a project, from the initial design process, to planning, when we relieve our clients from the stress of dealing with Councils, all the way to liaising with Building Control to obtain their approval.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR BUILDING BRIEF

When designing a new project, we coordinate several factors:

Firstly we listen very carefully to our clients’ aspirations, making sure that their brief is fully understood and implemented with our own expertise. Then we consider several other factors which can add to the complexity of the project, such as the possible presence of drains, which might require the permission to build over from the water supplier; the proximity to the property boundary, which should be acknowledged with a Party Wall Notification and even the possible appointment of a Party Wall Surveyor.

COMPLYING WITH BUILDING REGULATIONS

In June 2022 new Building Regulations came into force, including Part L regarding the thermal efficiency of the build. Because of this, now for most projects we help our clients procure SAP Calculations, which ensure that the project is built in line with these new parameters. We can also help our clients procure structural calculations from trusted structural engineers.

Client satisfaction is paramount to us, and in each of our projects we strive to offer a fully comprehensive service which allows to clearly understand and be aware of all the necessary steps to achieve a successful building experience.
