Need drawings for planning permission? Clear, accurate architectural drawings can make the difference between a smooth application and a delayed or rejected one. We help homeowners, developers, and businesses prepare high-quality drawings that meet your local council’s requirements.
When submitting a planning application, the council needs to clearly understand what you plan to build and how it will affect the surrounding area. Planning drawings show the size, layout, appearance, and relationship to neighbouring properties, helping planners assess the proposal quickly and accurately.
Without clear and accurate drawings, planning applications can be delayed, rejected, or returned for additional information. Well-prepared drawings reduce uncertainty for planning officers and ensure your proposal can be properly reviewed, saving time, avoiding unnecessary costs, and improving the likelihood of approval.
Our planning drawing packages typically include site location and block plans, existing and proposed floor plans, and elevation drawings showing the property before and after the proposed works. Where required, we also provide roof plans and section drawings to clarify building height, structure, and layout. All drawings are produced to scale and aligned with your local council’s requirements to help your application progress smoothly.

I can highly recommend this company,they were very professional and quick ,and everything went through smoothlyPosted on Google sticky bun boysTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very happy with the service provided by Planning Design London. Communication was top notch, and was very professional throughout the process.Posted on Google Kellie Cannon-MulveenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kemal came with great knowledge of the local Bexley planning system, other architect companies had suggested we submit the plans as two separate applications which would have cost double, however Kemal confidently explained why that wasn't the best approach and confirmed he had completed similar applications before. He was right, our plans went through planning easily as one application (ground floor and first floor) which was amazing. We also liked that Kemal came to visit the property instead of relying on Google Maps images and was really easy to get a hold of with quick responses. We're looking forward to working with Kemal to get this project through the building regulations stage.Posted on Google Sonya ZinnureyinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
