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 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”.

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.

We found your assistance and presentation to be of a very high standard. You kept us informed of all aspects of the case. As you were well aware, we have come up against quite a few obstacles with the Council, but with your skill and expertise in conversing with the relevant people, we had overcome these obstacles. We feel the money spent on obtaining planning permission was money well spent. If we did not contact you we’re sure the Council would have had their way and forced an enforcement order on the premises, thus putting so many people out of work. We were quite surprised how quickly the whole process took from start to finish. We did expect it to take a lot longer than it did

Results speak! I was pleased and sure you achieved a result faster than I could have done.

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!

I would like to take this opportunity of thanking you for all your help and assistance that you have given me, and the northern development control team. You have always carried out your duties in a professional and friendly manner, giving advice where needed and keeping to statutory deadlines wherever necessary. I hope that in future we can call upon you again to assist us in fulfilling our development control functions.

-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

Yussuf, I believe this was a great delivered speech, delivered quiet but with great effect. All points nicely delivered. What more can i say: well done!!! Many Thanks.

Simon and I wanted to thank you and your team for your help with the trials and tribulations of our planning application.  We’re thankful to have received approval, despite the ironic timing in the middle of a global pandemic so we can’t start work! But at least it’s over the line and we’ll work out a way to make the house habitable. We appreciate your calm and reassuring approach throughout a period of high stress for us. We would recommend your services to others.
