Approvals

We can help obtain Planning Permission if this is the route you need or want to take

Planning Permission is always required for ANY outbuilding if

  • you live in a Listed Building

  • you live in a building that is horizontally divided in any way

    (with flats and maisonettes etc)

  • there is a relevant Article 4 Direction in your area

  • a Planning Condition was imposed on a previous Approval for your

    property

HMOs

If you live in a House in Multiple Occupation, we can help ascertain whether or not you have ‘Permitted Development’ rights

2.5m Height limits

Don’t let the two 2.5m height limits - set out in the ‘Permitted Development’ legislation - needlessly restrict your design.

We can advise on maximising your space with a Planning Application.

Planning Applications

We can help prepare a comprehensive set of plans and documents needed for your Planning Application.

Robust Policy arguments.

Fast turnarounds.
