A GUIDE TO THE PLANNING APPLICATION PROCESS

Think of The Planning Man as your assistant to help you plan and prepare everything you need to secure your planning permission for your dream project, all at great prices. 

We have provided a brief description below of how the process works.

STAGE 1 - THE BRIEF

Once you have agreed our quote, and we have agreed a convenient time for the survey, we will ask you to provide us with some basic information about your home and your ideas.

We will then undertake a preliminary investigation into your project to understand both the history of the property, and any specific policies or other limitations which might apply in your immediate area.

STAGE 2 - THE SURVEY

We conduct a complete measured survey of the property to enable us to build an accurate three dimensional model of your home. 

Whilst at the property we will discuss your ideas and collect all of the information we need to be able to design your ideal proposal and produce your application. 

STAGE 3 - DRAWINGS & PLANS

From the survey information collected at the property, we will create a full set of drawings for your planning application, showing the existing plans and elevations. Whether it's a single storey extension or a complete house, we will provide all the drawings and plans you need to be succesful with your planning application. We will then create a draft proposal including all house and floor plans for you based on the information provided and ask you to look over them to make sure you are happy. We are happy to make as many revisions as may be required until you are completely satisifed with your proposal.
