PRE-APPLICATION PLOT APPRAISALS
At GC Consulting, I advise a preliminary plot appraisal before your planning permission application. This step reveals potential land constraints and offers guidance for maximising its potential. I assess your land against local policies to determine permission possibilities and identify the necessary specialist surveys required to support your planning submission. You can count on me to correctly prepare and submit your planning application and correspond with the local authority for updates.
UTILITY CONNECTION APPLICATIONS
New utility connections, often overlooked in self-builds, are critical early considerations. They require careful planning, whether gas, electric, and water or just water and electric. Conducting a thorough ground survey and coordinating with local network operators is crucial. I recommend capturing evidence through photographs during the process. Once existing infrastructure is addressed, obtaining quotations and scheduling works for new utility connections involves significant time and complexity, typically 6-8 weeks each. Many underestimate these complexities, and at GC Consulting, I guide you through this intricate process for a smooth transition to your new utility connections.
