Owning a listed building comes with a responsibility to protect its historic character, but it does not mean that change is impossible. Many listed properties can be sympathetically altered or extended with the correct professional guidance and consent.

At Insight Planning & Design we specialise in helping homeowners navigate the Listed Building Consent process across Oxfordshire and the Cotswolds. Whether you are considering an extension, internal alterations, replacement windows, or repairs to historic fabric, we can guide you through the requirements and prepare the necessary drawings and documentation.

Listed Building Consent is required for many works that affect the character of a listed property, both internally and externally. Submitting a well-prepared application with clear drawings and a properly written Heritage Statement is often the key to achieving a successful outcome.

With over 20 years experience in architectural design, planning and construction, we understand how to balance modern living requirements with the protection of historic buildings.

We are also in partnership with building control which means we have their trust, resulting in better communication, quicker applications and an excellent working relationship through mutual respect in regard to our overall knowledge of the construction industry.

Our team of friendly experienced builders and tradesmen have been specifically selected because of their vast experience and professional pride. They are respectful team players with first class communication skills.
