| “Planning Direct’s and in particular Nikki’s ability and knowledge with planning appeal is the best I have ever come across! Speaking to Nikki she listens, she understands, she challenges, and the breadth of her experience on appeals is top quality. Highly recommended!” Mathew Harmsworth, senior planner |
| “We really like working with Planning Direct. Their knowledge and appetite for finding solutions for difficult projects is a perfect compliment for the work we do.” Craig Driver BA(hons) DipArch RIBA Director, Hoopers Architects |
| “Planning Direct were engaged by the client following a recommendation from ourselves in response to a planning refusal from Islington Borough Council for an internal refit at a Grade I listed property in Lonsdale Square, London. The Planning Officer was very obstructive. Planning Direct handled the appeal in their usual efficient manner and the Appeal Inspector agreed with everything they said! The case was won hands down. I would fully recommend Planning Direct on any project that has planning issues. We as architects are engaging Planning Direct as early as we can on a good deal of our projects at pre-application stage because their sensible and pragmatic approach and thorough research wins the day.” Keith Johns, architect |
