Objection Experts レビュー 92

Amazing service. Owen was always on hand to answer our questions. So patient with us and supplied a brilliant letter of objection regarding our neighbours huge extension. Not only did he do all this but he kept an eye on the application and informed us of the outcome, which was a fantastic result to wake up to whilst visiting our daughter and new grandson in Australia. First coass personal service. Thank you

I live in a semi-rural setting on the edge of a village, a property on my boundary was subdivided to add a single dwelling which I had objected to as it overlooked me, so that was changed and approved. No big problem until they then submitted new plans to put 4 x 3 bedroom semi detached houses with 9 carparking spaces on the same half acre, backland plot. That was the catalyst for me to find professional help in objecting, Owen has identified a litany of valid objections to breaches of the council's planning codes without me having to figure it out and write it up, which would have been impossible in any case as I'm not a planning professional. This was done very quickly and at a very reasonable fee and his work is my best foot forward for preventing such an outlandish development next door, I would absolutely recommend Objection Experts to anyone finding themselves in a similar situation, a relatively minor amount of money very well spent compared to the economic and inconvenience consequences of not getting the objection right and giving the developer a free pass to proceed unchecked.

Highly recommended for laying out the specific details as to why a planning application doesn’t meet national and local guidelines. Owen was always responsive even out of hours, went the extra mile/s and laid out the details so much better than I could have, in planning speak clearly showing professionalism and expert knowledge. The application was rejected. Would definitely use again, even just to know you’ve done everything you can to challenge an application

Owen was absolutely fantastic. He went above and beyond in every respect and clearly knows his stuff inside out. He is professional and knowledgeable. We couldn’t be happier. We wouldn’t hesitate to use his services again.
Highly recommended!

I don't often write reviews, however I found Owen to be so helpful not only in the free advice he gave but also in the total amount he saved both myself and my collective neighbours in stress and anxiety. Our freeholder put in plans to create more flats on top of us and Owen meticulously went through the application in relation to all planning policies etc for our borough. It was so impressive. It resulted in the application being refused. When the freeholder tried a second time all the neighbours affected agreed to get straight back in touch with the Objection expert and this ended up in the freeholder withdrawing his application!!. I have recommended Owen to everyone I know, it is well worth the money and the investment in your piece of mind and property.

Owen did a great job in our fight to prevent unwanted development next door to us, he listened to our concerns and made sure we had our best foot forward in our objections. I have recommended to many friends.

I contacted Owen to assist with an objection to a planning application from a neighbour. Within a very short time Owen had checked the application against national and local planning policies, selected the policies and guidelines that the application conflicted with and produced an objection letter clearly setting out why the application should be refused. I have no hesitation in recommending his services.

Thank you Owen for all your help!
I’m no expert on planning objections so depended on you for support when my neighbour submitted an application that would have been terribly overbearing and block a lot of light into my home (which is in a conservation area). I used your excellent objection that you’d submitted for me, to assist in discussions with the parish council in my village and neighbours. I had support from the parish council and had 6 objections to the plans.
The application has now been withdrawn and I hope any revised plans will take my home into account!
Thanks very much for your help!

Our neighbours had put in for planning permission for a 3 bedroom dormer to he built in their back garden. It would have been looking directly into my lounge and bedroom. I sent Owen photos of both gardens and he wrote a full letter of objection on my behalf to the Council.
I'm positive that the objections he came up with were the reason my neighbours withdrew their application.
It really helped having Owen to object on my behalf as I could never have written anything so effectively.
Thank you so much .

What an incredible,
knowledgeable and professional service has been provided by Owen.
We found his company by 'Googling'.
This was after spending several stressful days working out how we could best object to our next-door neighbour’s planning application.
Their application was for a 7.4mtrs long double story extension which started 1m from our rear garden side 2m high fence boundary. However, it also transpired that the full depth of the proposed extension was 11.4 metres wide!
We contacted Owen and shared the Planning Application Council Reference number, and he immediately checked it and after his initial review he responded with his fee and terms of business.
We felt under time pressure, but we were assured by our communications with Owen that we had made the correct decision to appoint him.
Owen drafted the letter of objection within 3 days, addressing all of our concerns and more. Whilst doing this, he maintained a professional manner and always responded very quickly. After our approval he submitted immediately our formal complaint to the Council.
He also checked and advised any subsequent letters that we submitted directly in support of our objection.
Using Owen completely reduced the stress involved, in our objection, and it was money very well invested.
We believe by using Owen a professional consultant who is fully aware of all the necessary Planning Rules and Regulations definitely, helped us to obtain a sucessful FULL-REFUSAL.
If they appeal and it goes into round 2 we would have absolutely no hesitation in using Owen again.
Best regards

Owen was incredibly helpful right from the start. His knowledge of planning and how to object to plans professionally is first class. He explains things well to those of us who know much less and puts forward solid arguments against the plans we object to. Thank you so much Owen!

We 'googled' objection experts and found Owen. The reviews looked promising and so we contacted him for advice.
We live in a very rural village and planning had been submitted for two self build units in the field backing on to us which are part of the Blackdown National Landscape.
With Owens knowledge and understanding, planning was refused on many grounds which were all in Owens report.
If they appeal, he has confirmed he will help us again. Owen is very professional and always returned calls and answered questions swiftly.
Thank you so much.

Owen at Objection experts has been brilliant at putting together a thorough and detailed objection to a three bedroom backland development on my neighbours garden. He helped me understand the process and responded to all my questions. Regardless of what the outcome is, Owen has been exceptionally helpful.

I had an excellent experience with Objection Experts. Owen was professional, knowledgeable, and very thorough in his approach. He took the time to understand the details of my case and provided clear, well-structured guidance throughout.

What impressed me most was his attention to detail and how he tailored the objection to be both strong and compelling. Communication was always prompt and reassuring, and I felt supported at every stage of the process.

Thanks to Owen’s expertise, I felt confident that my objection was presented in the best possible way. I would highly recommend Owen and Objection Experts to anyone needing reliable and effective support.

I found Owen’s company on line after spending a stressful afternoon wondering how to object to my neighbour’s plans for a 6 .m extension right up to my boundary.Owen’s letter of objection addressed all of my concerns in a precise and professional manner.He also advised me what to put in my own letter of objection .Using Owen reduced the stress involved and it was money very well spent .This time I was successful in my objection but I fear I may be about to go into round 2 in which case I will have no hesitation in contacting Owen again.

We cannot rate this service highly enough ( but we’ll try!)
From the start, Owen listened to our worries and was then able to create an eloquent and powerful document which referred to all the right policies, using all the right language.
He was able to articulate our concerns perfectly and was prompt, responsive and effective.
We have probably only completed round one of a neighbours planning application which would have removed the privacy in not just our garden, but also into our bedroom and lounge.
We are so grateful at this stage the application has been refused, and feel this likely wouldn’t have been the outcome if we had tried to object ourselves- we were too emotionally invested.
When the new application goes in, we won’t hesitate to contact Owen again.
Thanks Owen!

Owen quickly understood the flaws in the proposal to undertake a garage conversion adjacent to our home. He was highly responsive and detailed in his work.
Our objection supported by his report was successful including overcoming an appeal.
Great work Owen.
Thanks!

I found Owen to be very experienced, direct and to the point. He created the draft objection letter in just a day or two, and following our review he issued the letter to the council on our behalf. He is clearly very experienced in matters of planning and objecting to such plans. He felt we had a very strong case, and so it proved - we're very pleased to say that the objection was successful.

Owen helped us to object to a proposed erection of a 6m deep x 4.7m high monstrosity right on the boundary of our properties. This would have massively affected the light, view from our property, adversely affecting the enjoyment and value of our property. Owen advised us and put in an objection on our behalf. Job done as it was refused on the basis he outlined. The objection was put into "Planning Dept" speak, making reference to the various Acts, guidelines and protocols in place. Worth every penny. It took the worry away from us and I suspect there will be a "Round Two", in which case I will be contacting Owen again.

Great! Dreadful issues with crazy developments next door. Owen challenged an application for permitted development of an oversized extension and to a tight deadline. We and two other sets of neighbours also submitted our objections, on what common sense and a reading of the rules would say were valid grounds. Owen succeeded where we all failed. So glad we used him! You cannot win the game, in fact you can’t even play, unless you know the rules. Owen knows the rules. Inside out, backwards, probably in ancient Greek too! Currently enlisting his help to block a different but related application.
