Common questions

What goes into a planning application in Guildford?

A householder application to Guildford Borough Council needs accurate existing and proposed drawings, a site location plan, the right forms and fee, and often a short design statement. We prepare the set and manage the submission.

What if the application is refused by Guildford Borough Council?

A refusal comes with reasons. Those reasons can usually be answered with a revised design and a resubmission, or by appeal. We read the decision, tell you plainly where it stands, and set out the route forward.

Do I always need planning permission in Guildford?

Not always. Some work falls under permitted development, and a lawful development certificate from Guildford Borough Council confirms that in writing. We tell you which route applies before any drawings are done.
