Plans

Before applying for planning advice, we recommend you check you need planning permission using our planning enqiry tool, as some projects, such as internal building alterations (unless you are in a listed building), may only require building regulations, which are handled by our building control service.

If you still need advice, we recommend you consider using our planning advice service.

Our service aims to speed up the planning process as any potential problems can be highlighted before you submit your application. It could also save you money in the long-run preventing resubmissions and changes. We can provide a written report, meet with you and visit your site.

Planning advice services cost from just £100 for householder applications and vary depending on the size of application and the services you need - view our fees.
