Tailored advice and reports in support of development projects.

Are you concerned about Right to Light infringements of your project?

The methodology to determine if a right to light is being impaired has largely developed by precedent and is continually evolving. The RICS guidance note “Right of Light” (2016) 2nd Edition as well as BRE guidenance provide the parameters and methodology that should be used to describe the impact of new development on existing properties in terms of the legal right to light. For this the availability of light is expressed as the Sky Factor. We provide support with determining the amount of light lost to support your negotations.
