Through long standing relationships with a wide range of associates we are able to provide planning, architectural and technical input to fully support any planning application. We can co-ordinate all these specialists, arrange fee quotes and ensure their input delivers a project to your specific requirements.
Through our associates we are able to prepare reports required to accompany planning applications. Alternatively, we are able to procure these services on your behalf through a tendering process. These services include
❖ Architectural design; we work closely with a range of architects and designers and are able to advise you on the most suitable architects / designers for your particular project
