About Daylight Consultants
Daylight consultants prepare daylight, sunlight, and overshadowing assessments for planning applications where development may affect light to neighbouring properties or where adequate light within new dwellings must be demonstrated. Their work follows BRE guidelines (BR 209), assessing Vertical Sky Component (VSC), daylight distribution, Annual Probable Sunlight Hours (APSH), and overshadowing of amenity spaces. For urban developments, particularly in London, daylight and sunlight analysis is a critical planning consideration — neighbouring residents frequently object to loss of light, and planning officers scrutinise the technical evidence carefully. A daylight consultant's assessment provides the objective evidence that addresses these concerns and informs design modifications where needed.
