House extensions in Armitage

Working in Armitage

Armitage and neighbouring Handsacre sit along the A513 and the Trent & Mersey Canal, a few minutes from our yard, with older village cottages, post-war housing and newer cul-de-sacs side by side.

Village extensions around Armitage need materials that fit in, and sometimes careful access planning down narrow lanes. Properties near the Trent & Mersey Canal and the River Trent need drainage designed with ground levels and watercourses in mind.

For Armitage (WS15), planning applications are handled by Lichfield District Council, and highways matters such as scaffold licences, skips on the road and dropped kerbs by Staffordshire County Council. Our yard at Kimberley Business Park is barely three miles from Kimberley Business Park.

How we work

Before work starts, your scheme needs the right approvals: planning permission or permitted development, Building Regulations approval and, where relevant, party wall agreements. We will tell you what is needed and work with your designer.

We design for lower running costs too, with good insulation and the option of heat pumps, solar PV and battery storage through Margav Energy, so the extension is comfortable and efficient as well as spacious.
