The planning system in the UK is complex and constantly changing therefore developers need sound advice and expertise from a reliable source. We house an experienced planning team with a wide range of knowledge in all areas of planning.
We understand our client’s needs and aims and we value and appreciate community viewpoints. In addition to this we have a good relationship with local authorities enabling us to liaise effectively in order to secure permissions for new development.
The projects we deal with vary in size and type. For example, major projects have included securing planning permission for mill conversions, new industrial units and large scale housing schemes.
Towards the smaller end of the scale we deal with applications for individual houses, certificates of lawfulness and changes in use of existing buildings.
We also provide planning advice for the development potential of sites advising on the most suitable development options subject to developer’s requirements.
We offer a varied range of services in both urban and rural including:
- Project co-ordination – liaising with architects and relevant consultants (transport consultants, ecological consultants, arboricultural consultants, acoustic consultants)
- Submitting and managing planning applications
- Manage all aspects of appeals and hearings
- Producing feasibility reports, for example, chances of obtaining planning permissions
- Securing listed building and conservation area consents
- Advising on development options for complex sites
- Producing planning and design statements
- Making representations to development plans/ Local Development Frameworks
