Homeowners

At Crossman Ecology, we understand that planning applications can be a daunting part of your home improvement journey. Whether you’re considering an extension, a loft conversion, or a demolition and rebuild project, our team is here to help you navigate the process with confidence and ease.

How We Can Help

Our expert ecological consultancy services are tailored to meet the specific requirements of homeowners. We work closely with you to ensure your planning application not only meets legal and environmental standards but also progresses smoothly through the approval process.

1. Extensions

Adding extra space to your home can be transformative, but it’s important to address ecological considerations early. We provide detailed surveys and assessments to:

  • Carrying out a bat survey and preliminary ecological appraisal to identify any issues early.
  • Propose practical mitigation strategies if required.
  • Provide ecological reports that satisfy planning authorities.

2. Loft Conversions

Loft conversions are a fantastic way to maximise your home’s potential, but they may involve ecological implications such as bat roosts. Our team can:

  • Conduct bat surveys in line with national guidelines.
  • Offer expert advice on legal compliance and licensing.
  • Ensure your project adheres to biodiversity regulations.

3. Demolition and Rebuild

Demolition and rebuild projects offer a fresh start but often come with strict environmental requirements. We can assist by:

  • Carrying out a bat survey and preliminary ecological appraisal to identify any issues early.
  • Advising on habitat creation and restoration to enhance biodiversity.
  • Preparing detailed reports and plans to secure planning approval.
