'We love helping clients win Planning Permission in East Staffordshire'

How We Help Clients

A successful Planning Application requires more than just plans and forms; it relies on experience, strategic thinking, and a good working relationship with the Local Planning Authority (LPA). Our submission packages give East Staffordshire LPA the confidence that your proposal is well considered, policy compliant, and deserving of approval.

As your Planning Agent, we manage:

• Site review and strategy
• Planning Application submission
• Architectural drawings and documentation
• Coordination with consultants
• Liaison with Planning Officers
• Discharge of planning conditions

You get a clear, policy-compliant submission tailored to the East Staffordshire Local Plan.

Planning Statements

We prepare clear, robust reasoning to demonstrate how your proposal aligns with national policy (NPPF), East Staffordshire's Local Plan, and the specific site context, essential in areas constrained by Green Belt or local character considerations.

Design and Access Statements

We justify the design, layout, appearance, and access arrangements of your proposal particularly important for applications within local Conservation Areas or for Listed Building Consent.

Architects Drawings

We are ARB registered Architects with over 25 years of experience. We take great care in crafting a comprehensive and carefully detailed drawing package that supports a strong planning submission that helps persuade East Staffordshire LPA of the merits of the proposed scheme.

Consultant Validation Reports

Many applications require supporting technical documents. We obtain quotes from our network of trusted consultants, advise on the most appropriate specialists, and coordinate their input. We regularly work with consultants who produce reports such as ecology, drainage, heritage, highways etc. that are often required to validate a planning application.

Lawful Development Certificates (LDCs)

We prepare and submit LDCs for:

• Permitted Development extensions and alterations.
• Long-established but undocumented changes of use.
• Verifying lawful site use for property sales, refinancing or enforcement protection.

We gather all the necessary evidence and present a well-structured case to East Staffordshire LPA, helping you avoid costly enforcement issues.
