What clients say about us

25+ years experience

We have been dealing with Richard Greenwood of Benchmark Development Planning for over 15 years, during which time he has been overseeing on our behalf the inclusion of our land in the local housing plan in Fordingbridge. We are based in South Africa, and Richard’s constant monitoring of the long-winded process has been extremely beneficial. We have every faith in Richard Greenwood and Benchmark.

Peter and Barbara Cape Town, South Africa

Thank you for your help, guidance and expertise on my planning application for 9 flats. I have been very happy with the work that you have done for me and already recommended you to colleagues.

Joe Wiltshire

We have used Richard to handle a planning issue with our Parish and County Council as he came highly recommended by our solicitors. We can see why. From the start we were impressed by his approach and professionalism. Richard is proactive, imaginative and very experienced. We, too, can thoroughly recommend him.

John Wiltshire

Benchmark Planning has been the “must haves” of our complicated and sensitive build. In nearly 3 years of planning struggle Richard’s advice and guidance has been faultless and delivered exactly what we wanted. I would recommend him to anyone – no matter how problematic the site.

Stuart Home owner in Wiltshire

Benchmark Planning has taken up our project and run with it from the word go. Richard has not been fazed by the challenge, and his experience, efficiency and energy have been invaluable in moving froward a development proposal in a sensitive location and guiding it towards success.”

School governor Wiltshire

Richard is very knowledgeable and meticulous in his planning. He is logical and fair and with his attention to detail will always go the extra mile. Highly recommended.

I was recommended to Richard Greenwood at Benchmark Planning and I have received prompt, courteous service backed up with a wealth of knowledge and experience pertaining to my specific planning issues. Richard is an excellent communicator and expectations were properly set and managed. I liked having Richard on my side.

Guy Property owner in NFNPA.

We used Benchmark Planning previously with great success so it was an easy decision to use them again to secure planning for a grain and straw barn. What I like is that when a problem or issue appears they will be straight onto it. They interact with other interested parties and make sure the whole process is straight forward and trouble free. We’d highly recommend using their services.
