The practice behind the approved plans.
Exp|Arc Architectural Services helps UK residential and commercial clients turn plans into permissions. We make the planning route clear, the price fixed, and the drawings council-ready.
A modern alternative to the traditional architect
Traditional practices often bill by the hour, keep the process opaque, and leave you unsure what you are paying for. We do the opposite: we confirm your route on day one, quote a fixed package, and keep revising until the design is right. And because we back our work, a planning application we submit that is refused is refunded in full within 5 days.
Clear from day one
We confirm whether your project is Permitted Development, Prior Approval or Full Planning before you commit.
Fixed, not hourly
One package, one price, defined scope. No meter running, no surprise invoices.
Independent drawings
We specialise in architectural drawings, Building Regulations and planning approval, so your drawings work with any contractor you choose, and we can help you find one.
Residential first, commercial too
Our main clients are residential clients extending, converting or renovating their homes. We also support businesses with practical architectural work, change of use, commercial layouts and the drawings needed for approval. See our business services.
