Planning Permission in Gloucestershire

Gloucester Architect Services

Planning permission for new houses or extensions in Gloucestershire is currently handled by GCC – Gloucestershire County Council.

Using the National Planning Portal, any architect can apply for permission from anywhere in the country. However, there is much to be said for using a team that is already familiar with applications in Gloucestershire, particularly in the Cotswolds ANOB.

Firstly, they know what to expect in performance and can tell if a delay is typical or points to some problem. Secondly, they get to know the favourite concerns or solutions that the team raises or accepts – this can help you make choices at the start of the project rather than waiting until a problem comes up and time is wasted.

At AURA, the creative design skill for your ideal home is blended with practical knowledge of how local planning authorities think, saving you valuable time and money.

For tips on when planning permission for your residential extension is needed, see our blog “What Is Planning Permission And What Is Permitted Development?”

    The whole process has been handled professionally with great communication and understanding from Aura who have taken great care to ensure we are happy and understand each of the key elements.
    We are absolutely thrilled with what Aura have created for us and we can not wait to see the project come to life.

    As main contractors with appreciation for good and efficient design, we were very impressed with Aura from day 1.

    On top of that their ongoing project management is flexible and approachable.
    Hope we get to work with them again in the future.

    Overall great design and exceptional value for money. As a first time consumer of architectural services on what was a large project I can not emphasise enough the value add that we got from Ben, Sophie and the wider Aura team. The effort … More and detail put into the design and specification of works along with significant assistance in project management was commendable. As the project evolved it was crystal clear that we saved a significant amount of time and money as a result of having a comprehensive package and most importantly we got what we wanted on budget. Expectations were exceeded in terms of meeting deadlines. Accommodating design changes and assistance with the planning process was also first rate. I would highly recommend the team and look forward to working with them on the next project.
