Faraday Planning - Excellent service, highly recommended!

We had an excellent experience with Faraday Planning from beginning to end. Harry Painting was outstanding throughout — thoroughly preparing our case for appeal and keeping us regularly updated at every stage, which gave us great peace of mind. His dedication and professionalism truly showed, and we were delighted that the appeal was ultimately successful. We are very grateful for all the hard work and support provided. Highly recommended.

Harry achieved the impossible

Harry achieved what seemed the impossible! After 4 years of battle with Tewkesbury council and thousands poured into legal advice with Harrys expertise we got a successful resolution!
Our case was complex with a mix of planning, PD, multiple applications and amendments, however Harry quickly understood the problem, had more knowledge than the council and came up with a resolution that worked.
We can now sleep easy, just wish we’d found Faraday earlier.
Thank you!!!

top planning consultants

My architect recommended Faraday Planning after my application to extend and convert a house into two flats was refused. From start to finish the level of service was excellent. Everything was explained clearly and patiently, and I always felt fully informed about what was happening and why.

Harry’s attention to detail was outstanding. He put together a really strong appeal case that convinced the planning inspector that the council’s objections about loss of a family home, the quality of the accommodation and the impact on the character of the area were all wrong.

When we received the news that the appeal was successful, we were absolutely delighted! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Faraday Planning to anyone needing expert help with a planning appeal.

Absolutely amazing company

I am absolutely over the moon after a successful appeal against enforcement notices, and it’s all thanks to Farraday Planning. From start to finish, the service was professional, clear, and incredibly reassuring. A huge thank you to Harry, whose expertise and in-depth knowledge were outstanding. He dealt with the enforcement notices confidently, kept me informed throughout, and achieved a very welcoming result!! I can’t recommend Faraday Planning highly enough — an exceptional service and an amazing outcome.

He prepared the appeal document and kept us advised of progress every step of the way. Our appeal was successful and we can progress with our plans. We would recommend Harry and Faraday Planning to anyone in this position.

Excellent Service

I worked with Harry on my planning appeal, and I’m very happy with the result. Harry was professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated throughout the process. Thanks to his efforts, the Inspector overturned the Council’s decision, and my appeal was successful! I highly recommend Harry for any planning issues—his support made a big difference.

Thank you, Harry, for your great service!

I am the Chair of Henham Parish Council. The Council wished to object to a planning application and asked Faraday Planning to prepare and submit an objection. The Council was most impressed with the objection which was expressed in planning terms. The application was refused. I was extremely impressed with both the service and the result. We will be working with Faraday again.

Very pleased with the service received.

My wife and I were not confident of how to word an objection, so employed Faraday to assist on our behalf. Faraday (Harry) helped us make objections to two planning applications (1 now been refused and 1still pending decision).
He was very conscious of time limits and provided for draft in good time for us to comment on and submit before the deadline. His knowledge and skill in penning a robust objection certainly helped achieve the positive outcome so far on one of the applications.
We would really recommend Faraday.

Fantastic service!

I want to thoroughly recommend faraday planning for all planning appeal work. The local council refused our application to subdivide our flat on 3 grounds, but faraday planning got them all overturned. They handled our appeal for us in such a professional manner and were always prompt in responding to our questions. The appeal statement they wrote for us was excellent, it was so reassuring to have such a helpful and knowledgeable team behind us. Thanks once again - 5 stars!

Professionalism at its finest, top class

After our third failed attempt at gaining planning permission, I heard about faraday planning from a friend who works in the property industry. And fast forward to earlier today when we received the good news that our appeal was successful!
Communication across the entire process was excellent, I always got detailed answers to my questions in a timely manner. I would recommend faraday planning to any of my friends or family without hesitation.

Harry from Faraday Planning was excellent in obtaining a difficult consent for us on a scheme in the West London area that had been turned down (unfairly in our opinion as was proved) by the local planners. His knowledge of the planning system, clear advice and understanding what arguments to advance and what to leave was ultimately invaluable in the end result.
