“Yew Tree Associates came well recommended and I am happy to say we were not disappointed. From the word go Mark was always on hand to sort out any issues that arose during the planning process, contactable at a moments notice with swift to keep the momentum up. His close working relationship with the planning authority meant that potentially serious issues could be alleviated to ensure a timely conclusion and a positive outcome for us.
