Brixham

Brixham is a modest fishing town and civil parish within the district of Torbay in the English county of Devon. The town is positioned at the southern end of Torbay, over the bay from Torquay. Fishing and tourism are the big industries of the town. The landscape of Brixham is hilly, its dock is continually used as a landing dock for fishing trawlers. In accordance with the 2011 Census, Brixham features a population of 16,700. The population of the town has been expanding since the 19th century, recorded as 3,671 in 1801 and escalating to 8,092 in 1901. In spite of the discovery of archaeological evidence suggesting the settlement of people in the ice age and trading in the Bronze Age, the first specific evidence of the town comes from the Saxon period. It is actually thought that the Saxon settlement came from Hampshire in the 6th century. A great deal of Brixham's historical interest can be noticed in its street names. For instance, Pump Street is where the pump initially stood and Monksbridge was a bridge built by the monks of Totnes Priory. In addition there are several well-known attractions available in the town. The replica of Sir Francis Drake's ship, 'Golden Hind' is an especially successful tourist attraction, which is permanently moored on the docks. Each summer season, Brixham is the host of the Cowtown carnival, a clear reminder of the time in which Brixham was two distinct communities, with only a marshy lane to connect them. Cowtown was the location on top of the town's hill in which the farmers resided. For all of your house improvement work, ensure that you select trustworthy experts in Brixham to make sure you get a great quality service.

FAQs

do i need planning permission for a garage conversion?

Are you thinking about converting your garage into a new space? Be it a new bedroom, gym, library or playroom, one thing you’ll have to consider before getting started is whether or not you’re going to require a planning permission. Unlike extensions that needs additional space, garage conversion is all about changing the existing structure of a space that’s already available to you - your garage. As a result, these projects are mostly covered by a planning policy that’s a bit different.

For a garage conversion, it’s very unlikely that you’ll need a planning permission. As a matter of fact, only 10 percent of garage conversions has been estimated to need a full planning permission, with the others coming under the permitted development rights. The permitted development rights, however, only provides coverage for home improvements that’s internal which implies that so far you’re not trying to enlarge your garage, you’ll not require a planning permission. But if otherwise, you’ll have to submit an application before commencing your project.

If you’re looking to comply with the permitted development rights, then your project must comply with some specific guidelines. These rules include the following:

• The work should be internal. No plans to enlarge or extend the existing garage.

• You should make sure that the materials used in carrying out the garage conversion is the same with the materials used in building the existing house.

• The building should not be extended.

You may, however, require a planning permission if you’re going to change a detached garage into a living space which could be a bedroom, small annexe or a living room.

Some houses excluded from the permitted development rights include flats, listed buildings, some new developments and most homes in a conservation area.

do you need an architect for a garage conversion?
Have you decided to convert that under-utilized space ( garage) in your home to a more habitable space where you can do anything asides general storage or parking a car? If yes, then you’d probably want to know where to start or if you’d require an architect to get started. Well, you’re not alone! This is one of the most frequently asked questions when it comes to garage conversions and reasonably so. Talking about where to get started, when it comes to home improvement projects the first step to take is determining whether or not you’d require a planning permission or if your proposed garage conversion is covered under permitted development rights. Once you’ve been able to conclude on that, the next step is deciding whether you’re going to complete the project yourself, hire the services of tradesmen or employing a builder. And this ultimately brings us to the question of whether you’ll need an architect for a garage conversion. To get started, it’s highly recommended that you employ the services of a professional architect or an architectural technologist to assist in designing your garage conversion. However, most garage conversion projects are straightforward with no complex changes to be made so far you wish to avoid applying for a planning permission and staying within the set guidelines of the permitted development rights. In such events, if you’re properly trained and well experienced in the field, then it may be cost effective to design your garage conversion by yourself. It should, however, be noted that it all depends on your personal preferences and budget. If you’re on tight budget and don’t mind a straightforward design, you can save cost by not hiring an architect.
Will I need planning permission or building regulations approval?

You may need planning permission if you are planning a larger extension. All extensions will need building regulations approval. An architect can assist with this and if planning permission is required. A reputable contractor will also be able to advise you if this is needed as well.

How long will my garage conversion take?

It’s often said that a garage conversion can take anywhere between 1 week to 1 month, depending on the size and scope. But many standard conversions without any plumbing can take as little as 5 days. Your contractor will be able to tell you exactly how long your garage conversion will take.
