FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Expert guidance and answers to common questions regarding Grade I and II listed building restoration, heritage conservation, and sympathetic renovations in Tetbury, Gloucestershire and the wider Cotswolds.

Do I always need Listed Building Consent for internal alterations?

+

Yes, in almost all cases. Listed Building Consent applies to the interior as well as the exterior of the property. This includes moving walls, changing floorboards, or even altering fireplaces. It is essential to check before starting any work, as unauthorised changes to a listed building can be a criminal offence. We can work with your heritage consultant to ensure all plans are approved.

What kind of specialists do I need for a historic building repair?

+

Working on old buildings requires a skilled workforce trained in heritage techniques. This often includes stonemasons who understand lime-based mortars, joiners who can replicate period mouldings, and specialists who can produce detailed historic reports. We provide these skilled trades as part of our comprehensive service, ensuring the use of traditional materials that allow the building to "breathe."

How long does it take to get planning permission in the Cotswolds AONB?

+

Typically, a standard planning application takes around eight weeks once it has been validated by the council. However, for complex renovations involving listed buildings or extensive extensions, the process can take longer if more information or site visits are required. We recommend starting the planning process as early as possible—autumn is an ideal time to plan for a spring start.

Can I modernise the energy efficiency of a Grade II listed country house?

+

While you may be restricted from installing standard uPVC double glazing, there are many ways to improve efficiency. We often install slimline heritage double glazing, improve loft insulation with breathable materials, and upgrade heating systems with modern, discreet controls. These changes often require consent, but we can help you find solutions that satisfy both your comfort and the conservation officer.
