Streamline Your Project With Expert Planning Consultancy

Planning services involve assessing whether your proposed development is likely to receive planning approval and preparing the necessary drawings and documentation required by the Local Planning Authority.

Before drawings are prepared, we assess the site, relevant local planning policies and any potential constraints. This early review helps identify risks, opportunities and the likelihood of approval.
Where appropriate, we liaise with the Local Planning Authority to seek informal feedback prior to submission. This can strengthen your proposal and reduce the risk of refusal.
We prepare all required drawings and documentation, which may include:

Existing and proposed plans

Elevations and site layouts

Design and Access Statements

Planning Statements

Supporting reports where required

All submissions are prepared in line with current local and national planning policy.
We manage the full submission process via the Planning Portal and act as your point of contact throughout. This includes responding to queries from the planning officer and making minor amendments where necessary.
If permission is refused, we can advise on revised submissions or assist with the appeals process where appropriate.
