House Extensions in Lanark
Lanark is a market town in South Lanarkshire, set above the River Clyde in the Clydesdale countryside. New Lanark lies down in the valley just below the town.
An extension is usually the biggest single change you can make to a house without moving. We also work in Carluke, Larkhall and Wishaw, close to Lanark.
Lanark is about 30 miles from our Kilmarnock office as the crow flies. Planning and building warrant applications for Lanark go to South Lanarkshire Council, and we deal with them for you.
