Daylight & Sunlight Assessment Reports
A faster, smarter, more affordable way to get planning permission anywhere in the UK.
BRE‑Compliant Reports for Extensions, New Builds & Neighbour Objections
When your planning officer requests a Daylight & Sunlight Assessment, you need a report that is accurate, defensible, and fully compliant with BRE 209. We provide fast, specialist daylight & sunlight analysis for extensions, lofts, outbuildings, new builds, and multi‑unit developments — including VSC, APSH, Overshadowing, 25°/45° tests, and full 3D modelling.
⭐ Why You Need a Daylight & Sunlight Report
Local authorities rely on BRE guidelines to assess whether your proposal:
- Causes loss of light to neighbouring windows
- Creates overshadowing to gardens or amenity space
- Fails Vertical Sky Component (VSC)
- Fails Annual Probable Sunlight Hours (APSH)
- Breaches the 25° or 45° rule
- Impacts daylight levels within your own development
A compliant report can be the difference between approval and refusal.
