Only two initial questions need to be answered at the outset.
1 are you going to do it DiY?
2 is a builder going to do it.
if 2, the builder will sort out plans, you present them to council to see if planning approval required, builder will build to regs, and get them checked by inspector, you move iin.
if 1, you need to start persusing the building regs now.
If it were me, I'd go 1, but then I am quite handy diy wise, a good planner, a good pm able to employ and manage the few trades i'd need, and being retired I have loads of time and the interest to do it.
