Bit of a building question. I'm thinking about doing an extension at my place in Chertsey and wondered what the process is with planning and regs etc.

Its only a small extension but it needs a bit of design work doing. Do I need to get an architect in to do this or is it a surveyor?

Also will the architect/surveyor sort out planning permission?

What sort of fees do architects/surveyors charge? The size of the extension is about 4mx4m

Cheers

Not all extensions need planning permission. Theres a thing called permitted development. Every council probably has different criteria but we built a single storey extension using permitted development rights. You will still need building regs approval.
