Thank you very much for obtaining the necessary approval for the above mentioned project. This approval stands for your high level professionalism and the technical know-how in handling complex situations. More over, the way you dealt with the time scale and the update with the progress of the job has been remarkable. Once again, let me take this opportunity to thank you for your excellent work.
I am so grateful to MZA for the success of my appeal. I was surprised and delighted with the result because there was an aspect of my plans that was arguably against the policy of the conservation area but the team at MZA very skilfully prepared the appeal statement in a way that emphasised how it was in keeping with the neighbouring properties and wider conservation area. They advised me expertly all the way and were a pleasure to deal with. I would not hesitate to use their services again or recommend them to others.
I have been dealing with MZA Planning for quite some time now and over the years I have been extremely pleased with the excellent level of service I have been shown. I appreciate and value their opinions and the direction they have given me over the years, helping me to navigate through quite complex Planning rules and regulations. I would strongly recommend anyone seeking Planning consultancy advice to speak to this firm, they won’t just tell you what you want to hear which is refreshing!
We are utterly delighted that MZA got us sorted out when we’d previously had consent denied for an application we submitted ourselves. Yusuf is knowledgeable, efficient & pragmatic, finding solutions to suit us very well.
It was clear that you had excellent background knowledge of enforcement matters, we were extremely impressed with the significant inroads you made into the backlog of casework.
I would like to thank you for all your work concerning our application for planning permission. We found you exceptionally helpful and efficient and feel you alleviate all the stress we have felt previously when going through the planning permission process. It is such a relief to know I will never have to do it again thanks to you and I will certainly be recommending you in the future. Although we were always kept up to date with the situation it was reassuring to be able to pass the load over to your company and we feel the money spent on your input was well spent.
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.
…We are entirely satisfied with the quality of service we have received from your company. At all times you have kept us entirely in the picture and we would have no hesitation in using you again.
-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
I am very happy with the services that MZA provided. They kept me up to date with the process and are very friendly and professional.
