Yes. We regularly support clients with permit variations, transfers, surrenders and updates to reflect changes in operations, site layout or ownership. We can also liaise with the Environment Agency to clarify what adjustments are needed and prepare all supporting documents on your behalf.

The Environment Agency charges application fees which vary depending on the permit type, sector and scale of your operations. We’ll confirm the exact fee during pre-application scoping so there are no surprises. In addition to regulatory fees, our consultancy costs are always outlined clearly in advance. We believe in transparency, so you can budget with confidence.

An environmental permit is a legal requirement for certain activities that could harm the environment or human health. For example, if you treat, store or dispose of waste, operate emissions-producing equipment or discharge effluent, you’ll likely need a permit. Holding the correct permit demonstrates that your business meets the necessary standards and helps you avoid enforcement action or fines.

We combine decades of technical expertise with a practical, responsive approach that makes the process straightforward. Our team is committed to working collaboratively, providing reliable support and helping you achieve compliance in a sustainable way. From the first enquiry to the day your permit is approved, you’ll have a dedicated consultant ready to guide you.

Standard Rules Permits follow set conditions that can’t be changed and are suitable for lower-risk, straightforward activities. Bespoke Permits are tailored to your specific operations and site, which means they’re more flexible but typically involve a more detailed application and assessment. If you’re unsure which applies to your business, we’ll help you determine the right approach.
