What is a Light Obstruction Notice

What is a Light Obstruction Notice?

We have the most experienced team of specialist Rights to Light surveyors based in Manchester and around the UK.

With this unrivalled expertise, our Rights to Light Manchester team of surveyors deliver solutions to schemes affected by rights to light, maximizing the development potential of a site whilst respecting the amenity of neighbouring buildings.

Our Manchester Rights to Light surveyors are based in offices in the heart of the city. Just around the corner from Manchester Piccadilly, in the middle of the Northern Quarter our surveyors provide advice in the city and across the North West.

Rights to Light can be one of the key determinants of the development potential of a site, particularly in dense urban areas.

No matter the size of a project, from modest residential work to the largest commercial developments, we apply the same expertise, care and attention to detail.

We work with investors, developers, owners and occupiers to assess schemes and provide clear strategic advice on potential issues, whilst proactively managing any associated risk.

With our practical and creative approach we look to take account of the commercial opportunities as well as the limitations.
