PLANNING
SERVICES

PERMITTED
DEVELOPMENT
Many extensions, loft conversions and outbuildings need no planning application at all. We check what your house can do under permitted development, confirm it with a Lawful Development Certificate where it matters, and use those rights to strengthen a bigger scheme.
NEW HOMES &
DEVELOPMENT
New homes, replacement homes and small developments of two to nine homes. We appraise the site first, so you know its potential and its constraints before you buy or commit, then take the scheme through planning.
PLANNING
APPLICATIONS
Householder and full planning applications, prepared, submitted and managed for you. We research the site, prepare what the council needs and deal with the case officer from validation to decision, with pre-application advice where it helps.
PLANNING
APPEALS
Refused? A revised application is often quicker, but where the case is strong an appeal to the Planning Inspectorate can succeed. We tell you honestly which route gives the best chance, and work to the deadlines that apply.
LISTED BUILDINGS &
CONSERVATION AREAS
Listed building consent and planning in conservation areas, where the detail decides the outcome. We prepare the heritage statement, propose materials the council can support and shape changes that respect the building.
PLANNING
SURGERY
Forty-five minutes with a planning consultant, at our Haslemere office or online, for £95 plus VAT. We research your site beforehand and tell you plainly what is likely to be possible and what to do next.
