Planning permissions in Kingston

For planning success, from your starting concept to project approval.

The process for planning approvals can be multifaceted; still, our skilled personnel delivers an uncomplicated, capable service, be it our design or one from elsewhere.

Kingston Planning

Getting design approval from government bodies can be complicated if you don't have the right expertise.  Just so you know, in the UK, planning permission is usually required before most building work can begin – it’s the council ensuring projects are safe and appropriate for Kingston. Regardless of who created your design—us, another professional, or yourself—our specialised team is here to simplify things.


We offer two main approaches to handle approvals: 

Designs by Us:  When we’ve designed your project, it’s typically created to comply with “Permitted Development Rights”, which often allow for simpler approvals.  Where possible, we aim for 100% approval, assuming your design stays within these rights and you agree to our proposal. We manage the complete approval journey, preparing all necessary plans, reports and submissions.


Designs by Others: If your design is from elsewhere, we’ll assess its approval feasibility in Kingston.  If it meets local regulations, we will produce any additional paperwork needed and manage the submission process. If we foresee potential challenges to approval, we will recommend effective adjustments to increase your chances of success in Kingston.


Trust in our specialised expertise for an efficient, professional approval process. We ensure your project meets all local regulations without unnecessary stress, letting you focus on enjoying your Kingston home.


Backed by our proven expertise, we guarantee an efficient, professional approval process, ensuring your project meets all regulations and proceeds smoothly in Kingston.
