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.
