So, you’ve dreamt of that perfect extension, a stunning renovation, or maybe even a brand-new build.
Do you Need to Hire a Planning Specialist?
First and foremost, like most things in life, you could go it alone.
However, you could say the same of things like re-wiring your entire property. (I’m not saying that’s a good or bad idea by the way!)
If you follow the correct regulations and complete the necessary safety checks, chances are that you will be able to do it.
I’d have to ask myself if it is worth the time and risk though.
The same rules apply to using a planning specialist. An RTPI-accredited planning consultant such as Simple Planning Solutions has the experience and qualifications to ensure legislation and building requirements with regard to planning permission are adhered to.
We manage the responsibility of getting the planning applications right, so you can focus on the end result.
What a Planning Specialist can do for you
It’s all well and good explaining on a high level what a planning specialist can do for you. I would like to break it down into some further detail however so you get a better idea of the services we provide.
Navigating the Planning Permission Process:
Planning applications can be complex and time-consuming. A specialist planner can take this burden off your shoulders. They can manage the entire application process, from drafting detailed plans to liaising with planning authorities.
This saves you valuable time and increases the chances of your project getting approved smoothly.
As a specialist in listed buildings and heritage work where costs can quickly mount up, we can provide the specialist advice you need for your project.
Simplifying Communication:
Building projects involve a complex web of communication between architects, engineers, builders, and yourself.
Simple Planning Solutions can act as a central point of contact if required, simplifying communication and ensuring everyone is on the same page. This keeps the project streamlined and avoids costly misunderstandings.
Peace of Mind and Reduced Stress:
Building projects, even small ones, can be incredibly stressful. A specialist planner can alleviate that pressure. They will address your concerns, answer your questions promptly, and handle any unexpected hurdles that may arise. With their expertise on your side, you can focus on the exciting parts of building your dream.
In conclusion, choosing a specialist planner is an investment in the success of your building project. Their expertise, experience, and network of contacts can save you time, money, and a whole lot of headaches.
A planning specialist becomes your trusted advisor, ensuring your project runs smoothly, stays within budget, and ultimately transforms your dream into a beautiful and functional reality.

Michelle has helped at every stage and has worked with the surveyors, architect and most recently negotiated with the planning officer during the application to ensure approval. Her fees are very reasonable and she is so easy to talk to and deal with.
Very few of us who are not in the industry have the knowledge to support these complex applications… I think this possibly the best money I have ever spent for her help with this project.
