Caveat
Honest answers from the start
Legalisation doesn't succeed in every case. It is the municipality that decides whether a building that has already been built can be approved. Sometimes it takes an exemption, and other times a change to the building. The same applies when a holiday home is to be used as a year-round home. It depends on whether the area and the local plan allow it.
We can measure up the house, check the rules and tell you what is realistic before you spend money on an application.
Process
How it works
How far we go with you depends on the job.
- Step 01
You describe the project
Send a short description, ideally with a few photos. We get back to you and tell you whether and how the job can be done.
- Step 02
Survey and design
We survey the property and look into all relevant planning conditions and building regulations. Then we prepare the permit set, so the drawings are ready for the municipality's approval.
- Step 03
Application and occupancy permit
We handle the permit process. We submit the application to the municipality and obtain the occupancy permit once the project is finished.
- Step 04
Construction and handover
We manage your building project from start to finish. We supervise the work on an ongoing basis, hold the handover inspection with the contractor and hand the finished result over to you.
