Providing first class service
We have extensive experience working in a wide range of council planning departments, the Planning Inspectorate and the private sector on a range of minor to major projects. We are Members of the Royal Town Planning Institute (MRTPI).
MZA Planning successfully presented my planning application to the Planning Inspectorate after the local planning authority had denied it. The Planning Inspectorate found in favour of the application and have declared it should be allowed. MZA Planning have been utterly brilliant. The entire organisation have been consistently and flawlessly professional throughout, have provided a steadying hand when needed and a relentless tenacity for success that would have you believe this was their own personal journey. The duration of this process extended to 18 months, throughout which MZA provided an honest, meticulous and personalised service – I can’t recommend them highly enough. In my opinion – anyone wanting planning advice would be doing themselves a disservice if they didn’t at least discuss their requirements with MZA
I have found Yussuf and his team at MZA Planning to be a trustworthy, reliable and professional business. They stopped enforcement action from Ealing Council, prepared a new planning application for me and supported me step by step through a lengthy appeals process which took over 12 months. Today, I received a successful appeal decision notice from The Planning Inspectorate – all down to the application that MZA expertly prepared. Nothing is ever a problem for Yussuf and his team and their pricing is very reasonable too. 5-star business, glad I found them! Will be using them in the future for business and personal planning applications.
A fantastic service. Due to MZA, we now have approved plans enabling us to build the house of our dreams (with rear extension, loft extension and side extension). These were not straight forward plans but MZA worked with us and the council to ensure they were passed.
Yussuf and Bho were great, they were patient and persistent with a very difficult planning dept at Hounslow – It was hard work but we got an acceptable result in the end!
The time taken to achieve the result was excellent.
“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!”
In all areas the input from your company has been timely and professional…Applications have been progressed satisfactorily, with well-researched reports…In conclusion I would comment that your company has provided Elmbridge with much needed resources…Your personnel have fitted in very well into the Division and have provided a very valuable service.
Yussuf and his team have on 3 occasions over the last decade assisted me with planning applications, all of which were successful and one particularly tricky. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend MZA Planning and will always return to Yussuf for any future requirements I may have.
An excellent service! People were always happy to help, and worked with us every step of the way. we were regularly updated and were very grateful for the ultimate success of the appeal.
“I was so glad when I heard our appeal was successful. A massive thank you to you and your team! I will also recommend you to my family and frinds and my local contacts”.
