What to expect locally
A large, busy planning authority
Birmingham handles a high volume of householder applications, so a complete, clearly drawn submission matters: missing information is one of the most common reasons for delay.
Typical projects
From Victorian terraces in the inner suburbs to post-war semis and detached homes further out, rear extensions, side extensions over garages and loft conversions are the work we see most across the West Midlands.
Neighbouring councils
If your home is just outside the city boundary, your application goes to Solihull, Sandwell, Dudley, Walsall or Wolverhampton instead. We check which before drawing anything.
Send your postcode and what you are planning. You get the route, the drawings you need and a fixed price in writing, usually the same working day.

Quick answers
Is my address in Birmingham or a neighbouring council?
The city boundary is not always obvious. Your postcode tells us, and we confirm the correct council as part of the free route check.
How long does Birmingham take to decide an extension?
Householder applications are expected to be decided within eight weeks. A complete submission avoids the validation delays that add to that.
Do I need Building Regulations drawings as well?
Yes, for almost every extension and loft conversion. We prepare them alongside the planning set so your builder can price and build from the same drawings.
