# Des Ager Design & Planning Consultancy
Des Ager Design & Planning Consultancy is a Godalming-based planning and architectural design firm specialising in residential and commercial projects. Run by Desmond Ager, who brings four decades of professional experience, the consultancy offers comprehensive design and planning services to UK homeowners and businesses requiring planning applications, permissions, or design visualisations.
The firm serves homeowners undertaking extensions, alterations, and residential builds, alongside commercial clients needing retail or business space design. What distinguishes Des Ager is the combination of extensive commercial experience—having worked with major high street names including House of Fraser, Toni & Guy, Crombie Menswear, Lidl, and Nationwide Building Society—applied to residential work. This background ensures clients receive professional, commercially-minded advice rather than generic consultancy.
Des provides honest, affordable guidance tailored to each project's specific requirements. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, the consultancy delivers full attention and bespoke solutions. The service spans both traditional handwritten drawings for initial concept visualisation and professional CAD (Computer-Aided Design) drawings necessary for formal planning applications. This dual capability means clients can explore ideas informally before progressing to submission-ready documentation. For small to medium-sized residential projects, Des Ager offers accessible expertise typically associated with larger practices, making professional planning consultancy achievable for homeowners and smaller commercial operators.
