What we offer
Planning & architectural drawing services
A full range of planning and design services for homeowners, landlords and developers across Reading and the Thames Valley.
Householder applications for extensions and loft conversions, full applications for new homes and changes of use, and the supporting statements councils ask for. We prepare the whole package, submit it and deal with the council until you have a decision.
Find out more →Some permitted development needs the council's prior approval before you build. The best known is the larger single storey rear extension, where the council consults your neighbours. We check that your scheme qualifies, prepare the drawings and submit the notification.
Find out more →A lawful development certificate is formal confirmation from the council that a use or building is lawful. It gives you certainty when you sell, remortgage or build under permitted development.
Find out more →A refusal is not always the end. We review the council's reasons, tell you honestly whether an appeal is likely to succeed, and prepare the appeal statement and submission to the Planning Inspectorate.
Find out more →Expert planning advice for the cases that need more than drawings: HMOs in controlled areas, committee items, development potential appraisals and the written statements councils require.
Find out more →Photorealistic exterior and interior CGI, 3D models and furnished floor plans for planning and marketing.
