Find a Planning Professional
Planning applications can be complex. Here are the professionals who can help you through the process.
Architects
Architects design your project and prepare the drawings required for a planning application.
The Royal Institute of the Architects of Ireland (RIAI) maintains a directory of registered architects. Your architect will prepare site plans, floor plans, elevations, and other drawings needed for your application.
Planning Consultants
Planning consultants advise on the likelihood of getting permission and manage the application process.
A planning consultant can assess your proposal against the local development plan, advise on potential issues, prepare the planning statement, and manage the entire application process on your behalf.
Engineers
Engineers provide structural assessments, site surveys, and specialist reports.
Depending on your project, you may need a structural engineer, civil engineer, or environmental consultant. They can provide site suitability assessments, percolation tests, traffic impact assessments, and other specialist reports.
Surveyors
Surveyors provide accurate site surveys and mapping required for planning applications.
An accurate site survey is the foundation of your planning drawings. A surveyor will map your site boundaries, levels, existing structures, and services. You'll also need Ordnance Survey maps for your application.
