What Our Clients Say

"Since 2020, we have worked with Partners in Planning and Architecture on a number of projects, ranging from house extensions to more complex residential developments, and the experience has been outstanding from start to finish. Their team provided clear, practical advice and guided us through every stage of the process with professionalism and attention to detail. The architectural drawings and planning submissions were of the highest standard, and their knowledge of local planning regulations, combined with value-added design input, was invaluable. We couldn’t recommend them more highly – a truly expert and reliable consultancy."

Adrian Albone - Director, Almac Carpentry and Joinery Ltd

Cambridgeshire, Suffolk & Norfolk | March 2026
"After being recommended to Partners in Planning and Architecture (PPA) following unforeseen circumstances during the planning process, PPA joined our project, and from that moment, our plans truly came to life. Without their guidance, we simply wouldn’t have gotten off the ground. They led us through every step of what can often be a stressful design and planning stage, including the challenging bat surveys and all associated requirements.

Following the grant of planning permission, the baton was passed to Neil (Senior Designer at PPA), who completed all of our working drawings. Neil has been fantastic, patiently handling all of my questions without hesitation. Thanks to him, we now have a full set of completed working drawings that allow us to finally envision ourselves living in our new home.

Now that we are both retired, we feel incredibly fortunate to be building our forever home, and it is all thanks to everyone at Planning and Architecture who has supported us along the way.

From two very happy people."

Mr and Mrs Hartley – Self Builders

Cambridgeshire | February 2026

"Having born the brunt of a series of complaints made to the council and the aggravation this has caused us over the last four or five years—and now, thanks to your efforts, it feels like it's finally come to an end and a line has been drawn under it.

I have been very impressed with the high level of skill and experience you clearly have, and the way your skill and experience made the process seem simple and straightforward. Many Thanks."

"Jon & Lewis are absolutely brilliant in capturing their client in a detailed level of engagement at a first meeting. I received a bespoke strategy proposal to my newly purchased pub (Crown and Pipes, Fenstanston). Furthermore, the energy and enthusiasm that both possess are definitely refreshing vs to typical market model/approach.

My vote goes to Partners In Planning and Architect as a FIRST class rate. Anybody wanted a fast turnaround and a personalised customer service."

Savi Cartwright

Owner Crown and Pipes

"Thanks so much for your work with Newmarket Road.

Quite the (ongoing) challenge, which I definitely wouldn't be able to manage without your helpfulness and expertise."
