Effective planning services

To give you a free consultation on your plans and ideas and will be able to give you guidance on the necessary Planning and any other legal obligations that might be associated with your proposals. It's handy at this point to have some sketches or ideas of what you would expect your proposals to look like.

At this point we may agree that Planning permission may or may not be required with some informal advice from the local Planning Officer. If we deem planning permission is not required your free to build at this point, but for piece of mind we would recommend requesting a Lawful Development Certificate. This is a document you can purchase from the Local Planning Authority to keep with your deeds to prove that your project does not require planning permission.

We will submit a formal planning application on your behalf and manage the process to ensure the route from your plans to approval is achieved with ease. Sometimes Planning Officers will request subtle changes to the proposals to make them more acceptable to local policies and plans. We will ensure plans are adjusted as necessary with your approval to ensure there are no delays to achieving your full planning approval.

This is because any 'habitable' room or structural alteration will need to be assessed and approved by the Local Authority. This can be as simple as changing your windows! We will advise on the procedures required to ensure your plans are lawfully carried out with the

minimum of fuss.
