Who We Are
​
We are experienced & qualified planning, finance & construction professionals who can help you to find out if you can get planning permission for a site in your garden.
We work in Dublin, Kildare, Meath, Wicklow & nationwide, with the current shortage of affordable & suitable accommodation that exists for many people in their local area.
We work with the national & local planning & development policies, strategies & guidelines designed to encourage suitable infill development in areas where support infrastructures exist.
Planning
​
We carry out our free initial site assessment to see if planning permission is possible for your garden.
Then we can do a detailed site development appraisal giving you all the information you need to decide to apply for planning.
We can then prepare a planning application for your site.
Finance
​
When planning permission is granted you may wish to simply sell the site.
We can help your solicitor & accountant to guide you on the legal & tax issues involved.
Instead if you decide to build the house & need finance we can partner you with a development or bridging finance provider.
Build
​
If you decide to build the house, we can specify the most innovative, energy efficient & cost effective building techniques.
We can partner you with the best eco builders & can manage the construction phase for you.
We can make sure that you get a superior quality home for less cost in a shorter timeframe.

"Ed Martin our architect & his team handled the design and Dublin City Council planning application for 2 new houses on our side garden site. This was in a conservation area which required extra attention to every detail. We couldnt have achieved such prompt planning permission without Ed's expertise & continuous support"

"We worked with architect Ed Martin to get planning permission for our new 4 bedroom house on our side garden site, a sensitive relatively high profile site, this was achieved after an initial grant by Dun Laoighaire Rathdown Co Co planning department was appealed by a 3rd party and the original decision was subsequently upheld by An Bord Pleanala"
