Consent and planning for flats
Leaseholders in High Blantyre usually need the freeholder's consent for anything fixed outside, and blocks of flats often need planning permission for outdoor units. In Scotland, flats are treated differently from houses under permitted development, so we confirm the position with the council where needed.
The survey
A survey in High Blantyre usually takes one to two hours. We measure the rooms, check the walls and the consumer unit, agree the outdoor unit position with you and photograph the pipe routes. On a survey in High Blantyre the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows.
