 Planning permission has been granted for a large extension to a house following a complex series of prior approval submissions and alternative planning applications. The client a specific requirement for an extension to the house - and concerned neighbours - that necessitated a series of different applications being made, rather than one single application. We achieved their goal after advising on the best strategy to follow, with a planning application approved under delegated powers.

 Small schemes can sometimes be the most complex.... we recently assisted in achieving a 'prior approval' for a rear extension to a house in the LB Richmond. Householders can take advantage of relaxed permitted development rights for larger extensions, but only if they follow the correct process in notifying the Council and ensuring any scheme meets the required regulations. We advised a householder on this process and achieved a large extension, despite difficulties from local residents.
Client: private householder  Planning permission and listed building consent have been granted for a series of complex applications that saw modification to past permissions, new internal and external works, extensions, alterations and new air conditioning apparatus at a Grade II listed house in the Belgravia Conservation Area, London. We coordinated the team of consultants and prepared evidence on historic building matters, with the applications approved under delegated powers in the 8 weeks even through the current coronavirus outbreak.
Client: private householder  We were recently involved in regularising a breach of planning control at a property in the Green Belt. Planning permission had been granted for a replacement house with a planning condition removing permitted development rights. However, an extension had been built at the property. We managed to achieve a Certificate of Lawfulness that secures the permanent retention of that extension.
Client: private householder  We were excited to be on site recently to help with last issues concerning the erection of a new house in the countryside in Berkshire. We have been involved in this project over many years and secured various permissions through applications, certificates of lawfulness and appeals. The work is nearing completion for this striking modern house, to be a family home for our long-standing clients.
Client: private householder  We're pleased to report that both our recent books on How to Object to a planning application or appeal, and How to Appeal against a refusal of planning permission reached the top 50 bestseller lists in 'Law for the Layperson' on Amazon. They are selling well, and provide a great guide for being involved in the planning system. See more at www.town-planning-know-how.co.uk
 Planning permission and listed building consent have been granted for alterations, extensions, basement and a new mews house to a Grade I listed family house in Fitzroy Square, London. This has been a long-running project for us with a series of complex applications and appeals, with the latest scheme a further change to meet the clients' wishes for a new family house.
Client: private householder  Planning permission has been granted for extensions and alterations to a terrace house in central Belgravia, London. The property lies within a conservation area and close to listed buildings, where space is very constrained and many residents overlook and adjoin each other. Pre-application consultation led to a scheme that was approved under delegated powers within the 8 weeks.
Client: private householder  We obtained planning permission for a large rear extension and mansard addition, the height and width of the house, to a substantial semi-detached villa in the Notting Hill area of London. Having fought a long battle for this permission, the client wished to implement the permission before it expired. We were involved in advising on a Certificate of Lawfulness to establish that sufficient works had been undertaken within the relevant time period, and the Certificate was granted by the Council to confirm that development can proceed in the future.
Client: private householder  A client had painted their stucco house in St John's Wood a delicate shade of pink. This offended the Council who refused permission, and an appeal was lodged. We demonstrated to the Inspector that the Council's policies for this conservation area allowed householders flexibility to choose how they painted their houses. The appeal was allowed and our client can keep their pink house.
