I had a wonderful experience with allplanning, Rob has been very supportive and answered promptly all my questions. Thanks to him we got approval from Camden council for a garden office very timely and with no objections or issues raised from the council. He did a great job (helping us also while on holiday!) and would highly recommend! More...

It was an absolute pleasure working with Rob. He was able to offer some creative ideas and have us guidance on our design and vision for changes to the house. He worked directly with the planning team at the council and was able to answer the technical questions we weren’t sure about. He was a great community, came back to us same day if we have questions and he’s even followed up with some additional advice and suport . We’d highly recommend working with Rob if you need guidance ha suport through the planning process and beyond. More...

Professional, knowledgeable and responsive. We hired Rob to help us with a lawful certificate development for a commercial building in Maidstone (Council), followed by a prior approval application for class MA. We were successful in both on the first try. Working with Rob has been nothing short of outstanding. From our very first conversation, it was clear that he brings a rare combination of deep expertise, strategic insight, and genuine passion to his work. Rob doesn’t just “consult” – he partners with you, taking the time to understand your goals, anticipate challenges, and craft smart, sustainable solutions that exceed expectations. His knowledge of the planning process is unparalleled. Whether navigating complex regulations, engaging with local authorities, or advising on project feasibility, Rob operates with professionalism and precision. What truly sets him apart, though, is his ability to simplify the complicated. He translates jargon into clarity, timelines into reality, and potential roadblocks into opportunities. Rob’s communication is flawless – always clear, always timely, and always reassuring. He manages every detail with care and consistency, ensuring that nothing falls through the cracks. It’s rare to find someone who is both a strategic thinker and an exceptional listener, but Rob is exactly that. Thanks to Rob’s guidance, we were able to move forward with confidence, knowing that every aspect of our project was in the most capable hands. His work ethic, integrity, and commitment to client success are second to none. I cannot recommend Rob highly enough – if you have the opportunity to work with him, take it. Your project will be all the better for it. More...

Rob was always responsive, professional, and easy to talk to. He took the time to understand our needs and gave us honest, practical advice. The service felt personal, not generic, and that made all the difference.

Rob is highly recommended. He was super responsive when I had a tight deadline to revert to the council. He supported me on an appeal for a rear single storey extension to the Lambeth council which I’m delighted to say was successful. Thanks Rob!

Rob was very straightforward and easy to work with. His personal knowledge of Lambeth planning was a great asset. I was surprised by the continuing number of costs involved - not from Rob, who was consistent from the start, but from the planning department. It would have been useful for budgeting to have had more awareness of these at the start. More...

Huge thanks to Rob for his exceptional support as our planning consultant.

From the very start, Rob was incredibly knowledgeable and provided us with invaluable expert advice that guided us through the complex planning process. His attention to detail in crafting the design and access statement was fundamental in achieving the council approval.

We submitted our application for a double front, double rear, and side extension with a gable roof, and we were prepared for a potentially lengthy process. However, thanks to Rob's expertise and strategic approach, we received planning permission on our very first attempt with Redbridge Council! This was a remarkable achievement, especially given the challenges we anticipated.

Rob's professionalism, responsiveness, and deep understanding of the planning landscape truly set him apart. We felt supported every step of the way, and it was evident that he genuinely cared about our project. I wholeheartedly recommend Rob to anyone looking for a planning consultant. Thank you once again, Rob, for making our vision a reality! More...

I am delighted to write this review to commend the outstanding service provided by allPlanning, with special thanks to Rob Hewson, for their invaluable support throughout the entire process of preparing documentation for a fibre internet installation in our listed building. Navigating Westminster Council's requirements was a daunting task, but Rob's expertise and dedication made all the difference.

From the outset, Rob demonstrated a thorough understanding of the regulatory landscape and the specific concerns associated with listed buildings. His attention to detail ensured that every aspect of our application was thoroughly addressed.

Rob's proactive communication and regular updates kept us informed at every stage, providing much-needed reassurance during a process that wee we beginning to find to be quite stressful!

I'm pleased to bee able to say that thanks to Rob efforts, we received a favourable decision from Westminster Council, allowing us to proceed with the installation.

Initially, we expected a simple planning application, but conservation restrictions complicated matters. Engaging Rob at All Planning Limited proved pivotal. Without his expertise, our application would have been rejected. Rob not only kept it alive but also swiftly guided us through necessary adjustments. He collaborated seamlessly with additional surveyors we hired, ensuring timely reports. Regardless of project size or type, I highly recommend All Planning's assistance, especially for work in Waltham Forest and its conservation areas. More...

When I was planning an extension to my 3 bed in Eltham a friend recommended Rob at allPlanning. I’d heard that Greenwich Council can be difficult. I’m so glad I got in touch with Rob - his expertise and insight were invaluable throughout the process.
