Cut through the red tape.
Planning permission without the headaches.

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.

I would like to thank you yet again for your exemplary service in winning our appeal. Always easy to contact and discuss any concerns even though the same questions have probably been asked time and time again. I thank you for your patience and time.

Most reliable. It fully met my expectations in time scale and the result was more than I expected.

A reliable and excellent service.

Highly recommend them . Professional service

Dear MZA, Thank you for all your hard work in winning the appeal against Hounslow Council’s decision to refuse planning for a wraparound and loft extension at Netheravon Road property in Chiswick. Most of the other companies I approached were not confident in handling the appeal and said there was little chance of the appeal being successful. You, however, believed that there was a good chance of having the appeal upheld, even if it was on a split decision. I am extremely happy with your work and have since recommended your company to other who are in a similar situation to mine.

Having failed a Planning Permission dealt by another company, we approached MZA Planning and were amazed by the professional and courteous manner our appeal was handled. We were successful in achieving the planning permission and would like to thank Mr Bhoseok Nam and team. Thank you 🙂

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.

“When the Council first declined our extension project, I was gutted… only to find that we could do as much, if not more, under Permitted Development, on the advice of our architect. As the work was pretty much finished, a council worker visited the property and rejected everything we had done as unlawful. They soon voted the demolition of our project, which left me baffled as I was quite sure we had followed PD rules and saw no rationale for their conclusion! Enter MZA planning: from his first visit to the property, even before we contracted him, Yusuf was helpful and gave us an honest opinion on our position, without charging us anything… When we decided to appeal the decision, he was an obvious choice… His deep knowledge of the intricate Council process proved invaluable and yes, we won the appeal!!! I cannot recommend his firm highly enough… Next time, I will make sure I enlist his help straight from the start of any project! A Huge Thank you!”

Well knowledgeable, high professionalism – very reliable, excellent service
