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).
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.
Brilliant knowledge of the Town Planning System, the time taken to achieve the result was excellent.
MZA helped me with a tricky loft extension to navigate Ealing Council and the planning rules that they seem to apply in a fairly inconsistent manner, depending on who you talk to. I concluded that it helps hugely to have a professional team to deal with the council and MZA were excellent in planning and presenting a novel approach to make planning approval a no-brainer. The team (Bho, Yusuf and Anita) were excellent and got me through the process with a minimal amount of stress, so if you are dealing with council planning, I would recommend a talk with MZA – you have nothing to lose and a lot to gain.
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!
Great service as always!
The results were very quick – I thought it would have taken longer – all very quick – MZA were terrific, when I first phoned them I was in a bad way – they kept me calm told me to send everything to them and they basically sorted everything – very efficient – I had all faith in them and they did it all – very very happy for all he has done for my business – Thank you.
I would like to thank you for all the work you have put into helping us getting the planning permission. I am very pleased in the efficiency you have shown us and will be getting in touch when I require any further work carried out.
I was very pleased with the result, however, it took time.
“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 done, great news. Thanks for all the hard work and effort that the whole team has put in. Many thanks!
