Pre-Planning Advice

Need help or advice regarding planning permission for your project? Our town planners can conduct a planning appraisal to establish whether you need planning permission, the requirements for an application, costs and the likelihood of success, to give you the answers you need in a day. Potentially avoiding the need for a pre-application with your local authority, saving you time, money and hassle.

Town Planners

Our team of RTPI accredited town planners have a wealth of experience in all planning permission matters. Many of our town planners have worked as planning officers and enforcement officers within numerous local planning authorities, as well as the private sector. We work with every local planning authority in the UK and know many of the planning officers, so we have a deep understanding of the planning system from both the applicant and local authority perspective.

Householder Planning Application

Applying for planning permission is daunting and confusing for most homeowners. Our town planners work closely with our in-house architects, we can manage the entire application process from start to finish saving you time, money and stress. Whether you are considering an extension, loft conversion, garage conversion or a new build house, we will give you the best chance of securing approval.

Commercial Planning Application

Whether you are considering a change of use or a major planning application for hundreds of new dwellings, our town planners will help you effectively navigate the UK planning system. Large-scale developments by their nature are more complex and costly so, it’s important to seek professional pre-application advice to determine the feasibility, costs and likelihood of success before you commit. If your development is feasible, we will help you achieve your goals.
