🧭 Full Planning vs. Permitted Development for Commercial Projects

Not all commercial changes require full planning permission. In some cases, you may be able to proceed under permitted development rights or through a prior approval process.

We’ll assess your proposal and advise on the most efficient route—saving you time, cost, and uncertainty. If permitted development or prior approval is an option, we’ll prepare and submit the necessary documents to secure your position.

Not sure which route applies? We offer a fixed-fee feasibility review to help you understand your options before you commit.
