At some stage in your life, you may run out
of living space in your house.
Moving to a bigger house is usually your first thought – but can
be a daunting experience, especially in this modern day climate.
When you move house you never quite know what you are getting
yourself into.
Will your new environment be better or worse for your family?
Will your new neighbours be as nice as your current neighbours?
Not to mention the financial costs involved which can run into
thousands.
If you’re happy in the home you live in, extending may be the
safe alternative.
Working with Architects and Structural Engineers, AB Joinery
Services can provide a complete building service for all your
home improvements.

How the process works ....
Stage 1
Every building project begins with a site visit and a chat on
what you aim to achieve. Where you have not appointed an
Architect or Structural Engineer, we will advise as to what you
can do.
You will need to submit, to the local authority, a planning
application detailing your building project. In order for you to
do this, you will need to appoint an Architect. You may also
need a Structural Engineer, where there are structural works
required. We can recommend Architects and Structural Engineers
we have worked with on our past and present building projects.
Once you have appointed your Architect and agreed the layout of
your building project, Stage 1 is complete.
Stage 2
From here, your will know if a Structural Engineer is required,
if so you will need to appoint one.
Once all Architects and Structural drawings for your building
project are complete, you are ready to submit a planning
application for your building project.
At this stage you are able to obtain builders estimates. It is
recommended you get at least 2 or 3 estimates.
Our estimate will be categorized into the different trades
required and detailed for easy reading and understanding We will
make a second visit to go over this in detail with you.
Stage 2 is complete.
Stage 3
Depending on how intricate your building project is, this part
of the process is a waiting game. This is the ironing out the
creases part, where all drawings are checked to see they meet
current regulations and building standards. This process can
take up to 3 months.
From here, you will obtain a building warrant which allows you
to start works.
Stage 3 is complete.
From here ....
Let AB Joinery Services take the stress out of your building
project.
Prior to works beginning, we will provide you with an
approximate time scale for your building project.
From start to end we will communicate with you on the progress
of your building project with site meetings as required.
As we provide all trades relevant to the project in hand, you
need only get involved as you see fit.

We brought AB Joinery on board to completely
revamp our kitchen, ripping out all the old units and installing
a full new kitchen set.
Andy, and his team of contractors, were extremely professional
throughout, arriving on site when they said they would and
giving good advice throughout the whole process, which made the
works painless and easy for us. |

Andy has now done a few jobs for me, complete
rebuild of a substantial outside wooden staircase, new garden
fence and creating some internal storage.
All jobs have been completed to a really high standard within
excellent time scales and at very competitive prices, always on
site when promised and cleans up after the job to the point you
wouldn’t know a tradesman had been. |
