Whether you’re purchasing a development site, applying for planning permission, or conducting due diligence, a Phase 1 Desktop Study is often legally required — and always financially wise.

Local authorities and environmental regulators use this report to assess whether a site poses contamination risks. Without one, your planning application could be delayed or even refused. For investors and developers, it’s also a key tool for reducing the risk of unexpected remediation costs. Many lenders also require a Phase 1 Environmental Assessment before approving finance for potentially contaminated land.

We provide fast, cost-effective Phase 1 studies for:

  • Residential and commercial developers
  • Architects and planning consultants
  • Legal professionals and surveyors
  • Site buyers conducting environmental due diligence

All our studies are fully aligned with the Land Contamination Risk Management (LCRM) guidance published by the Environment Agency, which replaced the older CLR11 framework. Our experienced team ensures your report is comprehensive, compliant, and planning-ready.
