One Team, From Survey to Build

Coordinating between an architect, a designer, and a builder is time-consuming and often frustrating. At Ripley Builders, we offer a complete design and build service under one roof, removing that complexity entirely.

Following your initial survey with Robert or Ben, if your project requires drawings, whether for planning permission, building regulations, or simply to define the scope of works, our designers can visit your property and produce everything that is needed. You do not need to source a separate architect or manage multiple contractors. We handle it all, and we keep you informed at every stage.

What Our Design Service Covers

  • Measured surveys of your existing property
  • Architectural drawings for planning applications
  • Building regulations drawings and specifications
  • Planning application preparation and submission
  • Design consultation to help you make informed decisions
  • Coordination between design and build stages

Already have drawings?

If you already have an architect or designer in place, that is absolutely fine. We are equally happy to quote and build from existing drawings. Our design service is simply an option for those who would prefer to keep everything under one roof.

How the Process Works

A clear, managed journey from your first conversation with us to the day we hand your completed home back to you.

1

Initial Survey

Robert or Ben visits your property to understand the project, assess the site, and discuss your requirements in detail. This is free of charge and carries no obligation.

2

Design Visit

Our designer visits to carry out a measured survey of your property. They will take accurate dimensions and gather all the information needed to produce your drawings.

3

Drawings & Planning

We produce the technical drawings required for your project. Where planning permission is needed, we can prepare and submit the application on your behalf.

4

Build

Once the design is approved and agreed, we proceed to the build phase. The same team that surveyed and designed your project will deliver it, start to finish.
