About NI Planning Permission

A full planning permission consultancy based in Northern Ireland

NI Planning Permission Ltd is a full planning permission consultancy based in Northern Ireland. We handle the whole process: an early appraisal of your site, the right application route, drawings and supporting reports coordinated with your designers, submission to the council, and dealing with the planning officer until a decision is made.

We work in all eleven council areas, from Belfast to Fermanagh. Our clients are homeowners, farmers and rural landowners, developers, and businesses. Our work covers new homes in the countryside, replacement dwellings, extensions, changes of use, an HMO, certificates of lawfulness, retrospective applications, listed building and advertisement consents, and commercial and renewable energy schemes.
