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.
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.
MZA planning have been very proactive throughout the process and I was impressed by their professionalism and commitment to achieving a positive outcome from the outset.
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
“Extremely reliable. Good Result, took quite a long time but that was in no way the fault of MZA. Was good at letting me know just what was going on always”
I was very happy with the service all the way to the successful end.
Excellent knowledge of Town Planning and reliable service. Exceeded my expectations.
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!
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.
Thank you so much for your wise professional advice and support in helping us to object to this proposal. Your planning expertise was crucial in ensuring that our objection was properly considered, and helped us to focus more sharply on the vital aspect of material planning matters.
