    Rear extension design drawings and building regs

    Posted 09 October

    Recently used D K Designs for our rear single storey extension, Dan and Kirsty were great throughout and easy to deal with, the building regs and planning we needed from Yorkshire water to move a manhole cover were sorted without hassle and also the steel calculations. Very happy with the work From D K Designs.

    Happy to Recommend

    Posted 08 October

    We used DK design following a recommendation. Our project was the construction of a new larger extension. Kirsty and Dan from DK came up to see us to discuss and advise initially -which was quite useful. Thereafter, they produced the plans for our agreement and they subsequently submitted these to the relevant Authorities for Building Regs approval. However we did also need the services of structural engineers to undertake the detailed calcs. The only issue was the glacial speed of the local authorities in providing the BR Approval. However Kirsty was on the case to expedite. Very Happy

    Easy to deal with

    Posted 07 October

    We worked with DK Design to plan our extension build and couldn’t be happier. From start to finish, they were a dream to deal with—professional, approachable, and always on the ball. Communication was spot on throughout, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. If you’re after a team that listens, delivers, and keeps you in the loop, Daniel and Kirsty are the ones for you Highly recommended!

    Brilliant service from start to finish. They handled everything, planning permission, council applications, and all the paperwork, so I didn’t have to lift a finger. The process was smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend them for anyone wanting a hassle-free experience.
