Expertise

We have extensive experience navigating the complexities of developments in sensitive sites, including conservation areas, Green Belt zones, and listed buildings. Our expertise ensures that projects comply with planning regulations and policies. 

Client-Centric Approach

Navigating the planning process can be complex and time-consuming. At Compass Planning, we take the time to listen and understand your needs. By focusing on just one or two projects at a time, we ensure dedicated attention, offering proactive solutions to prevent unnecessary delays, resubmissions, or appeals—helping you secure the permissions your development requires efficiently and with confidence.
