How it works

Two ways in. One answer you can act on.

Come to us with a scheme and we appraise it. Or bring just the site and the Optimiser finds the strongest option. Both end in the same defensible report, so you can start before you know exactly what to build.

The free planning check

Pin a site or draw your plot and get an instant read on the key constraints. Free, no sign-up — and you keep a branded PDF snapshot.

Then choose your route. There isn't a wrong one.

Route A

I've got a scheme in mind

You know roughly what you want to build. We pressure-test it.

1
Tell us the scheme
Dwellings, development type, housing mix and storeys — as much as you have.
2
We appraise that scheme
Planning judgement, viability and constraints, all keyed to your numbers.
3
You get a defensible read
Where it stands, where the risk sits, and what to commission next.
4
Optional: a second opinion
Add the Optimiser to see whether the site could do more than your scheme.

Route B

Help me decide what to build

You've got the site, not the scheme, and that's a fine place to start. We find the strongest option, then test it.

1
Give us the site and your priorities
Viability, yield, speed or risk — tell us what matters most.
2
The Optimiser ranks the options
Dwelling count, mix and type, worked for your site and its policy.
3
We test the recommended one
We run the full economics on it, so it is a position we stand behind, not a guess.
4
You get the same defensible read
The recommended scheme, the alternatives, and what to do next.

Your site, read in full

We read your site, then find what fits.

Access, setbacks, constraints, the lot. You start from where you are now, and there is always a way through.

Illustrative. We start with your real site boundary, then read access, setbacks and constraints, and test the options. Concept-stage, not a promise of permission or value.

Where both routes meet

The same defensible answer.

Whichever way you come in, you are not left guessing. You land on one report, built to be tested and backed by a named person.

A defensible report

Four scope tiers, from a quick screening to a submission-ready pack. You pick the depth.

Checked by a person

Adversarial quality control, then a named human check. Chartered sign-off on request.

Grounded in the record

Policy cited by paragraph and reasoning grounded in the appeal record, not recalled.

Straight about it

What each step is, and is not.

The free check is a steer, not an assessment

It reads public open data for England. A general guide, not site-specific advice, and not covered by professional indemnity insurance.

We recommend, then test, the strongest option

For the Optimiser route we find the best option and run the full economics on it before we stand behind it. We do not promise the maximum.

Drawings are illustrative

Where a scheme drawing is offered it is concept-stage, to show the response to the site — not a finished design.
