How We Work — Birmingham Planning Permission

Our Simple 5 Step Process
To Get Your Project Approved.

A clear, stress-free planning permission process — from your first free consultation right through to approval and beyond.

💬 Free Consultation

Every project starts with a free, no-obligation consultation. Tell us about your Birmingham property and what you’re looking to achieve. We’ll give you honest advice on planning potential, likely timescales, and the best route forward — whether that’s a full planning application or permitted development.

📐 Measured Survey

Our team will visit your Birmingham property to carry out a detailed measured survey. This gives us precise dimensions and existing layout information — the foundation for accurate architectural drawings that will satisfy your local planning authority.

✏️ Architectural Drawings

Our architects produce a complete set of drawings including existing and proposed floor plans, elevations and site plans — all prepared to meet Birmingham City Council’s specific requirements. You’ll have the opportunity to review and refine the designs before submission.

📤 Planning Submission

We prepare and submit your complete planning application to Birmingham City Council or your West Midlands local authority on your behalf — including all forms, drawings, design and access statements and supporting documents. We monitor the application and liaise with the council throughout the 8-week determination period.

✅ Approval & Next Steps

Once your planning permission is granted, we provide all the approval documentation and guide you through the next steps — whether that’s progressing to building regulations, appointing a contractor, or preparing for site. Our 95% approval rate across Birmingham and the West Midlands speaks for itself.
