Planning Applications For Any Project / SAVE 25% or More

PLANNING APPLICATIONS

Anyone can submit a planning application but given the wave of complexity added over the past decade, we don't recommend it.

​

Earlier today I had the pleasure of submitting a planning application for a simple replacement window project and in addition to the usual I had to submit a Fire Safety Strategy Report as well as providing 6/8 photos of the adjoining properties to make a valid planning application.

​

Now that isn't really a problem for me as I submit planning applications for a living but for regular people it really is a frustrating hair pulling experience when they try to submit their own application and are instructed to complete a CIL questionnaire, provide a heritage statement and we mustn't forget the dreaded DAS statement.

​

Even our young technicians are pulling their hair out over the number of times their planning applications are rejected because of the increasing levels of bureaucracy. 

​

Take my advice, let the professionals handle your planning application as it will be money well spent and of course, you get to keep your hair.

​

At PINK LINES we submit all types of standard planning applications for a fee of £395 Plus Vat.

You will also have to pay the Planning Application Fee and disbursements to cover the cost of the ordnance survey block plan, location plan and the land registry fee, about another £40.

​

Once a planning application is submitted it goes through a period of validation and can take several weeks to form a valid planning application. Once it becomes valid you should have a result within about 8 weeks. If there are objections from the neighbours it might take a little longer as your application may have to go to committee for a decision. 

​

Last year we got a 98% success rate with our planning application and the reason for that is that we monitor all applications once submitted and deal directly with the appointed planning officer to overcome difficulties which may mean having to tweak the plans a bit. If we didn't monitor and consult with the planning department, I would Imagine that we would be lucky to get a 50% success rate with our applications.
