The Plan Hub

Make sense of your renovation before anyone starts building.

The Plan Hub guides you through the design and planning phase, to a construction-ready handover. Then we stop.

Measured survey, design route and planning-ready handover before builders get involved.

The clear plan path

Four professionals must be coordinated. Nobody tells you in what order.

Most planning trouble is not a design problem. It is a sequence problem. Here is the sequence we run, from first idea to a contractor-ready package.

01

Brief

We sit with you and write down what you want, properly, in one place.

02

Survey

A measured survey of your home, so every drawing that follows is honest.

03

Design

Sketches you can react to, refined through to a scheme you would build.

04

Planning

The application, written for the planners who will read it.

05

Tender

A buildable package handed to your chosen contractor, with the brief and risks visible.

Guided

Face to face with a real person who owns the thread from first idea to handover. The path for anyone who would like to be walked through it.

Self-directed

For people who already know what they want and want to move quickly. You run the path. We keep the order and the documents in place.

Featured renovations

Range, on purpose. Traditional and modern, side by side.

We are not one taste. There are designers and planners on the platform for the sash-window restorer and the steel-and-glass extension, and we will only put you in front of the ones suited to the work you want.

The Plan Hub were excellent. I honestly couldn't fault them. They were very knowledgeable. They explained the whole process clearly and their turn around time was great. High quality drawings and excellent customer service, as they were very quick to reply to my emails.

About

Established London planning experience, calmer to work with.

The Plan Hub has been doing London residential planning work for years. The people, the suppliers, the borough relationships are the same. The way it is presented is what is new.

We do design and planning only. We stop before the build.

That is a trust signal, not a limitation. The point at which we hand you over to a contractor is the point at which our incentives stop being aligned with yours, and we would rather not be there.
