Review
I was very impressed with LRJ planning from the start. Staff were friendly and courteous. They responded to my enquiry immediately, and dealt with any amendments promptly. The planning statement in my opinion was outstanding and there were no objections. I would highly recommend their services and would not hesitate to use this company again in the future.
Warm regards
