“It has been a pleasure working with MZA. A very professional service that gave me the result I was hoping for: Change of use for my new shop premises.A big thank you to Jorge. He did really well and communicated clearly at all times. I would definitely recommend!”
-Professional -Experienced -Knowledgable These guys never disappoint! I cannot thank Mr Yussuf and his team enough , every email and every phone call was either dealt with or returned. Great customer service which is always a major key in any business. We went with previous architects and had absolutely no hope after being rejected . I approached MZA and they reassured me they can help. Literally went through 12 rounds with the council and was knocked down every single round. MZA prepared a Professional strategy highlighting all the councils concerns on my project and it was finally approved. They do not just read off a screen and reel you in, they will tell you how it is and very straightforward and honest business. I cannot thank you guys enough . Many thanks guys . Sam
We used MZA Planning twice for householder appeals and won both times! They provided an excellent, efficient service and gave realistic advice. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
Yussuf and his team proved invaluable in helping me deal with the bureaucracy and pedantry of the planning system. In my experience gaining planning permission can be very frustrating and time consuming but MZA dealt with this on my behalf with great professionalism and patience which led to a negotiated but positive planning decision for me. I wouldn’t hesitate in using the planning services of MZA again.
After many months of trying to have sensible conversations with the planning department at Hounslow, I was worn down to the point of giving up. At every opportunity Hounslow simply said NO and maintained a desire to show no common sense and almost demonstrated an appetite to simply play games because they could. It was all very depressing until one day I received a post card through my door after my third rejected planning application. The post card was from MZA. A local, professional planning consultancy that suggested that they could help. I was very sceptical but thought that it was worth paying for a brief consultation. Without sounding too dramatic, that 20 minute meeting changed everything. The team at MZA felt very confident that all of my planning applications should have been accepted first time around. I followed the advice that I received from the expert consultants to the letter and they helped me and my architect navigate through the process of appeal. Last Thursday I received the last decision, again in my favour. 100% of Hounslow’s ridiculous decisions were overturned and I plan to start the build in a few weeks. As a Chiswick based surveyor and estate agent I meet so many people that have fallen victim to the same treatment from the local authority and I plan to send them all to MZA. If you feel that your local authority is behaving more like a David Brent sketch than an elected authority, give MZA a call. They talk sense and do what they say that are going to do. Truly excellent. Thank you to the whole team.
The time taken to achieve the result was excellent.
I found MZA to be very efficient and organised company. The fact that 36% of their fee is payable upon appeal being allowed, shows they are confident in handling the appeal. My appeal took just under 4 weeks to be allowed, this must be a record. MZA must have a magic potion!!! I will recommend them to everyone.
Many thanks for achieving such a great result!
I appointed MZA to take care of submitting planning permission on behalf of my husband and I to build an outbuilding in our garden last year. In took lots of stress away from us as there were so many things that came with applying for planning permission that we simply did not understand. MZA were really efficient and constantly kept us updated throughout the process. We of course had our application GRANTED! We have since built our outbuilding but recently ran into some other, separate issues. I contacted MZA for some advice as I did not know who else to turn to and they were extremely helpful and empathetic which we really needed during that time. Due to taking their advice on board, the outcome was positive. I would absolutely recommend using MZA.
…Your service is excellent and it’s lovely to deal with you, totally charming…
