Planning Permission: Can I Do It Myself or Should I Get Help?

Planning Permission: Can I Do It Myself or Should I Get Help?

Many homeowners wonder if they can submit a planning application themselves. The answer? Yes, technically you can. But whether you should depends on the complexity of your project.

If your home is in a conservation area, if you're planning a two-storey extension, or if your council has a tricky approval history—it’s wise to get professional help.

That’s where our Planning Packs come in. We offer a self-contained service to handle drawings, documents, and submission, all at a fixed cost. You stay in control, but we handle the paperwork.

So if you're asking, "Can I do this myself?"—the better question might be, "How much smoother could it be with help?"
