Report means any written document, assessment, or analysis we produce for you.

Property With Andrew Ltd provides advisory and consultancy services relating to commercial property and permitted development planning. Our services include:
Each service has its own scope and limitations. Where specific terms apply to a service, these are set out in dedicated sections of this document. In the event of any conflict between these general terms and service-specific terms, the service-specific terms take precedence.
A contract between you and us is formed when we confirm your order or instruction in writing (including by email) and you either make payment or agree our payment terms in writing. Submission of an enquiry form or initial conversation does not constitute a contract.
We reserve the right to decline any instruction at our discretion. If we are unable to take on your project we will tell you as soon as reasonably possible.
By engaging us you confirm that you have read and agree to these terms in full, including any service-specific terms applicable to the service you have ordered.
Our fees are quoted in pounds sterling (GBP). Property With Andrew Ltd is not VAT registered; no VAT will be added to the fees quoted.
Unless otherwise stated in writing, the following payment terms apply:
Any additional works not included in the original brief will be quoted separately and charged in addition to the agreed fee. Additional works will not be commenced until a revised fee has been agreed in writing.
Planning applications and the submission of plans to building control will only be made once all fees due have been received in full. We will not submit any application on your behalf while any amount remains outstanding.
We reserve the right to pause or withhold delivery of work if payment is overdue. Interest may be charged on late payments at 8% above the Bank of England base rate per annum under the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998.
For fixed-price services paid in advance, please refer to the service-specific terms below, which set out the refund position for each service.
For ongoing or bespoke engagements, you may cancel at any time by notifying us in writing. You will be liable for fees in respect of any work completed up to the point of cancellation. We will invoice you for any outstanding amount and refund any overpayment within 14 days.
We may cancel an engagement if you provide materially inaccurate or misleading information, fail to provide information we need to carry out the work, or breach these terms. In such circumstances, we will retain fees for any work already completed.
Our services are advisory in nature. We draw on extensive practical experience in commercial property and permitted development, but our advice does not constitute regulated professional planning advice as provided by a chartered member of the Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI) or a qualified solicitor.
Property With Andrew Ltd are not qualified architects. We specialise in space optimisation for commercial to residential development projects, with a focus on maximising returns and minimising build costs through permitted development. Planning permission drawings, building control plans, and mechanical and electrical (M&E) plans do not, in law, need to be produced by a qualified architect — but clients should be aware that we are not architects and do not hold architectural qualifications.
There are certain services reserved for qualified architects that we do not provide. In particular, we do not act as Principal Designer under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015. Clients should ensure that a suitably qualified Principal Designer is appointed for notifiable projects where required.
All reports, assessments, drawings, and recommendations we produce are based on information available to us at the time of preparation, using publicly available data and our professional judgement. We cannot guarantee the accuracy or completeness of third-party data sources.
Any planning or development decision — including whether to purchase a property, submit an application, or proceed with a scheme — remains entirely your responsibility. We do not accept liability for decisions you make based on our advice.
We recommend that you seek formal pre-application advice from the relevant Local Planning Authority and, where appropriate, specialist consultant input (for example, from flood risk, acoustic, or heritage consultants) before committing to a purchase or application.
It is your responsibility as the client to ensure that all information provided to us is accurate and complete. This includes site addresses, ownership details, existing use, floor areas, and any other information relevant to the service commissioned.
Where amendments to drawings, reports, or documents are required as a result of inaccurate information supplied by the client, additional charges will apply. We will notify you of any additional costs before carrying out further work.
You are also responsible for ensuring that any consents, permissions, or approvals required from third parties (for example, freeholders, mortgagees, or co-owners) are obtained before instructing us to proceed.
All drawings, reports, documents, and other materials we produce remain the intellectual property of Property With Andrew Ltd until full payment has been received.
Once full payment has been received, you are granted a licence to use the materials for the specific project for which they were commissioned. You may not reproduce, adapt, or use our documents for any other purpose without our written consent.
Reports and assessments produced for you are intended for your use only. They should not be shared with or relied upon by any third party without our written consent. We accept no liability to any third party who relies on our work.
We will treat all information you share with us as confidential and will not disclose it to third parties except where required by law or where necessary to carry out the services (for example, in the course of submitting a planning application on your behalf).
You agree to keep confidential any proprietary information, methods, or templates we share with you in the course of providing our services.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability to you in connection with any service — whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise — is limited to the total fees paid by you for the specific service giving rise to the claim.
We are not liable for any indirect, consequential, or special loss, including but not limited to loss of profit, loss of anticipated savings, loss of a property opportunity, or loss arising from a planning application being refused or delayed.
Nothing in these terms limits or excludes our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law.
We process personal data in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. We collect and use your personal information only to the extent necessary to provide our services, communicate with you, and comply with our legal obligations.
We do not sell or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes. Where we share data with third parties (for example, when submitting a planning application), we do so only as necessary to provide the service.
You have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data at any time. To exercise these rights, please contact us at contact@PropertyWithAndrew.co.uk.
These terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them (including non-contractual disputes or claims) are governed by and construed in accordance with the law of England and Wales.
You and we both agree that the courts of England and Wales will have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with these terms.
We may update these terms from time to time. The current version will always be published on this page with the date of the most recent update. If we make material changes, we will take reasonable steps to notify clients who have an active engagement with us.
Your continued use of our services after any changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms.
These terms apply specifically to the PD Eligibility Assessment service (currently £195). They supplement the general terms above. In the event of any conflict, these terms take precedence for this service.
The PD Eligibility Assessment is a structured desktop check of a named commercial property against the Class MA permitted development eligibility criteria, using publicly available data. You will receive a written report within 5 working days of us receiving full payment and all necessary information from you.
The report will provide one of three results: Green (eligible — no blockers identified), Amber (further investigation required before committing), or Red (not eligible — specific reason given).
The assessment checks the following criteria:
The following are explicitly outside the scope of this assessment. We will not provide information on these matters as part of the £195 service:
Unit layout or floor plan design. The assessment does not consider how many units could be created, how they could be configured, or whether the floor area suits a particular scheme. This is a separate service.
Financial analysis. The assessment does not cover GDV, development costs, profit margins, financing, or investment returns.
Noise, daylight, or other technical assessments. These are required by Local Planning Authorities as part of the prior approval process but must be carried out by specialist consultants. Our report will flag whether they are likely to be required, but does not carry them out or pre-judge their outcome.
Physical building condition or structure. We do not inspect or comment on the physical condition, structural integrity, or buildability of the property.
Preparation of any planning application or supporting documents. The assessment is a pre-commitment check only.
A Green result means we have identified no eligibility blockers based on publicly available data at the time of the assessment. It does not mean that a prior approval application will be granted. The outcome of any planning application depends on the quality and completeness of the documents submitted, the outcome of required technical reports, and the Local Planning Authority's interpretation of specific conditions — all of which are outside the scope of this assessment.
An Amber result means the building broadly meets the criteria, but one or more factors require further investigation before you commit. You should not proceed to purchase or application without resolving the flagged matters.
A Red result means one or more criteria are not met based on our assessment. We will identify the specific reason.
A successful prior approval application depends on submitting the correct documents and evidence in support of all required prior approval matters. Our assessment tells you whether the building appears to be eligible — it does not assess or guarantee the quality of any future application, nor does it remove the need for professional application support.
The report is prepared for the named client only, based on the specific property address provided. It reflects conditions at the time of preparation and should not be treated as current if more than three months have elapsed since the date of the report, as planning designations, Article 4 Directions, and flood data may change.
The report should not be shared with or relied upon by any third party — including solicitors, lenders, or other investors — without our prior written consent. We accept no liability to any person who relies on the report other than the named client.
The fee is £195, payable in full before work commences. The report will be delivered by email within 5 working days of receiving payment and all necessary property information from you. The 5-working-day turnaround is a target and not a contractual guarantee; where we anticipate a delay we will notify you promptly.
If you cancel your order before we have commenced the assessment, we will refund the fee in full within 5 working days. Once work has commenced, we are unable to offer a refund.
If, for any reason, we are unable to complete the assessment (for example, due to insufficient publicly available information about the property), we will contact you to discuss and will refund the fee in full if we cannot deliver a meaningful report.
We do not offer refunds on the grounds that you are dissatisfied with the result. The result reflects the eligibility criteria as they stand — it is not a matter of opinion.
