Cameron Jones Planning Ltd provides professional planning advice, preparation and management of applications, appeals, supporting statements, objection letters and commercial and residential site appraisals. We are based in Ascot, Berkshire and cover Berkshire, London Boroughs, Buckinghamshire, Hampshire, Surrey and Middlesex.
It is always advisable to instruct a Planning expert who can advise from the outset (prior to plans being drawn up) on how best the land can be developed and what planning considerations need to be taken into account. At Cameron Jones Planning, we pride ourselves on being able to give the best advice on the current planning policies and land restrictions.
Applications
We can advise on the likelihood of gaining planning permission for your proposal, write a supporting statement, submit the application and liaise with the Local Planning Authority with the aim to achieving planning permission.
Appeals
Have you had planning permission refused? We can submit your appeal for you either via written representation, representing you at a Hearing or acting as an Expert Witness at Public Inquiry.
Site Appraisals
We can undertake a thorough planning history search, a planning policy search from the relevant Council and establish what can be constructed or what use land can be put to.
Pre-application Advice
Not sure whether a house could be extended with or without planning permission? We can attend a house viewing and advise accordingly. We can also review plans drawn up by architects/designers to advise on the likelihood of gaining permission.
Planning Constraints
If your property is subject to local or national development restrictions (Green Belt, Listed Building, Conservation Area, Floodzone etc.), we can advise you on what you can and cannot do to realise the true potential of your site.
Achieved a smooth successful retrospective planning application. Simple engagement process; trustworthy and transparent in terms of work needed and pricing; responsive when questions raised; and adaptable.
Fiona helped us to get full approval for plans to carry out an extensive refurb of our conservation-area property, which included front, rear and side extensions. We appointed Fiona on the recommendation of our architect, after we received advice at pre-planning stage that permission would not be granted on a number of grounds. Fiona provided extremely efficient support, advising us (time poor and completely new to the planning process) on the risks and merits of different approaches to our appeal – low versus higher risk design options. She drafted a compelling appeal statement, that successfully addressed all grounds for refusal at pre-planning and planning stages. Thank you Fiona!
Cameron Jones get the right results. They give good advice and take the time to understand the issues and recommend a workable solution for all parties. We recommend their services.
Cameron Jones Planning were very responsive, professional and value for money. Fiona and Kevin Jones worked seamlessly together, covering for each other as necessary. They took time to understand our wishes and sought proactive solutions where others had defaulted to easier, and unsuccessful, approaches. They also brought in other disciplines as required (legal and architects) to ensure our application withstood scrutiny from all angles. It was a pleasure to work with them.
Fiona has been fantastic in this process. Highly professional and on the ball with our case 100% of the time. Fiona’s contribution to the project resulted in successful approval of our planning application.
Highly recommend Fiona – she worked on our successful planning application to Richmond council. She always responds quickly and was able to get access to documents not available online that we needed to support our application. Would use her services again
Fiona at Cameron Jones Planning managed to turn, what appeared to be, a hopeless situation into something we could work with. Her diligence and tenacity have given us the opportunity to see the original plans for the project take shape. Fiona works across a number of projects for us, she is always clear about what she feels is achievable and what is not. I value her services greatly and have no hesitation in recommending Cameron Jones Planning.
We would highly recommend Fiona and her team. We were apprehensive as to where to start with our particular planning problem but from the beginning Fiona offered us straight forward easy to follow advice. The fee that was discussed at the beginning was clear and transparent so we knew at each stage what the cost was going to be. She submitted the application on our behalf after careful consideration of the best way forward and we are happy to say we had a positive conclusion without any hitches at all.
Fiona at Cameron Jones Planning was excellent. We had a really tricky case – an old building, a non designated heritage asset- she worked skilfully and efficiently with the council and through an appeals process. She was so clear with us so we knew what was going on all the time. We truly felt in capable (and the best) hands. We are thrilled to now have planning when there were times it seemed like we may not ever get it! Massive thanks Fiona
Cameron Jones recently supported us with our planning application after our first was refused. Fiona submitted a 20 page document including our revised plans, photos and detailed information around the planning policies. Throughout the process Fiona was in correspondence with the planning department and us, guiding and advising where necessary. Our plans have now been granted but we feel Cameron Jones knowledge and expertise in their business helped immensely to the plans being permitted. A Highly experienced and professional team, thank you!
