Alder King Planning Consultants

And now for something completely different

Our planning consultants provide a full spectrum of planning services to private and public sector clients across the UK.

From individual householders and small businesses through to national and international companies, we advise clients on everything from planning applications, Environmental Impact Assessments and appeals through to development plan promotions. We have the skills, knowledge and expertise to provide a comprehensive planning service that seeks to add value at every opportunity.

Our experience of working with and for planning authorities, as well as developers and landowners, enables us to guide you through the complexities of the planning process. We take a positive, creative approach to overcome the inevitable problems that arise during projects, and will help you optimise the development potential and the value of land and buildings.

We work independently or, when it best meets the needs of our clients, we can harness the skills and resources of our specialist in-house departments in Agency and Development, Building Consultancy, Business Rates, Investment, Property Management and Valuation, as well as our other offices, to provide up-to-date market intelligence.
