What Our Clients Say

Julia and Richard Pyper

We were very pleased with the service provided by WPS Planning. Doug Wright’s responses were prompt and knowledgeable, he kept us informed throughout and went the ‘extra mile.’ He has an extensive understanding of planning issues, yet explains things clearly and straightforwardly. We thought the process would be difficult but Doug clarified the issues and it was all sorted out quickly and painlessly. Thank you Doug – we gladly recommend you!

Doug Wright was recommended to me by my carpenter, Simon O'Neill. Doug worked well with my architects and put together an application which covered my disability and the law of distinguishing sections of my house that could be rented until I needed them. His knowledge of the laws in planning enabled him to put together an application that was detailed and proficient in establishing what I wanted to achieve and what the council would accept in a retrospective application. His thoughtful approach and my architect's ability to share their drawings enabled Doug to achieve a positive result which I was truly grateful for. - Ms Sutherland

Doug Wright helped us to appeal for our Retrospective  Planning Application for an extension to the front of our house to obtain a positive result. We found him to be knowledgeable and professional. He was quick to communicate to us any issues in a relaxed yet informative way. We have no hesitation in recommending Doug.

This is to record that we are very pleased with your report in respect of the adjacent property and your efficient presentation of the complex details related to the above. This an excellent summary of our objections to the planning application and a convincing argument to present our case and we are very  grateful.

Doug handled our planning from start to finish. He worked with the architect and myself making sure we understood the challenges, and guiding us to our finalised application. His knowledge was invaluable. 

He then worked through the project with the Council planners, during the worst period of COVID, and despite the potential for delays, achieved a timely and positive outcome. 

Doug was always contactable and sympathetic to our concerns. He was creative and personable, a true professional. 

I recommend him wholeheartedly.

Doug was highly recommended to provide expert advice which we needed to support our planning application.He has completed everything we needed to provide to the council in a very swift manner. He also gave us guidance on how to progress our application due to it not being straight forward with the property being listed locally.

Doug responded to my planning enquiry promptly and was kind enough to arrange a site visit to answer my family's questions regarding potential planning permission potential. Although we decided not to proceed with the process his professional advice was invaluable to us.

We have used Doug before to object to a planning application. His report was clear and pertinent and helped us with our objections. Will certainly use him again.
