“The UK Planning Maps service was pretty straightforward to use and I was able to readily create the appropriate Site Block Plans and Site Location Plans. In an ideal world I should have been able to use the service on the UK Planning Portal without having to resort to an additional fee. It also doesn't help that my Local Planning Authority, the UK Planning Portal and UK Planning Maps are not consistent in their use of terms for the same maps.”

“Great Service - If you make a mistake or wish to modify your map you can do this within the original cost, which is very helpful and not highlighted on the website. Thank You.”

“Instant delivery of Land Registry compliant plans at a reasonable price. My only quibble is that it ought to be possible to zoom in on a plan while drawing freehand annotations.”

“I was really pleased with the ease of use of this service and the price and quality of the map. It was a little tricky to pay but Evelyn online was super helpful and sorted it out straight away with a follow-up a day or two later to ensure everything was fine.”

“Happy to report that the pdf bought from UK Planning Maps passed validation by ###### District Council yesterday. The online markup for the site boundary worked OK for me after a bit of practice despite what one of the reviews says. The hard copies turned up from Kirkwall 48 hours later, not really necessary but bought as an insurance, printed on good stiff paper and not creased in transit. I edited the file to add the proposed heat pump (a tiny rectangle 3 x 9 pixels!) using IrfanView, which is a free download, to convert to .bmp and using MS Paint to edit, then the reverse. Some advice on the website on how to do this would be helpful. Conclusion: does what it says on the tin!”

“Initial process was simple enough but I had a problem when the local planning authority wanted adjustments which were difficult to do on screen. I contacted UK Planning Maps who couldn't have helped more - Excellent customer service and very much appreciated.”

“Easy to download but I was not able to mark out the area as I couldn't get the pens to work. A pity as I had to draw them in afterwards.”

“Good - easy to use service. My only problem related to the remoteness of the area I wish to capture. But, finding what I needed was not too difficult. Helping me to navigate the complexities of the Planning permission world - thank you”

“The maps are available to the required scale as per planning stipulations. However, the map is not provided with a scale bar, something the planning department insists on being within the map. The map is provided with North up, which is suitable, but again the planning department requires a North indicator. I found it very difficult to use the online mark up tool, which didn't always snap correctly so I purchased the map without mark up and used a software tool to mark up manually, without too much bother.”

“Very good and accurate Maps.....reasonable price. Niggles? Just a couple of small ones.....small error in boundary indication on my property and no provision for moving the centre of the maps to ensure all the property is shown in the 200:1 maps. That's why 4 instead of 5. Still.....brilliant maps.”
