Planning Applications
We offer a service to satisfy planning applications where the planners require a landscaping scheme. Our expertise and understanding of what the planners are looking for, ensures the process goes smoothly. We are also aware that where the landscaping is part of your home it is designed to please you not just the planners.
We will liaise with the planners and architects to produce a plan to satisfy planning conditions. It will include plants, with mature sizes and size at planting time, and all boundary treatments. It does not include an ongoing maintenance plan which can be provided for an extra cost.
This work is dependant on us receiving a scale drawing (.pdf or .dwg) showing houses and any roads, house elevations and any planning letters.
Starting at £500
V.A.T, Printing, photography and soil tests
(where required) are not included.
