Things You Might Want to Know

What is Planning Permission?

Planning permission is the formal approval from your local council to carry out building or renovation work on your property. It ensures that your project complies with local regulations, and is necessary for projects that change the appearance or usage of a building or land.

Do I Need Planning Permission for an Extension?

Not all extensions require planning permission. Under "Permitted Development Rights," some small extensions may not need formal approval. However, larger or more complex projects, especially in conservation areas, will require planning permission. It’s essential to check with your local council.

How Long Does the Planning Permission Process Take?

Typically, the local council will decide on your planning application within 8 weeks. However, more complex projects may take up to 13 weeks. It’s advisable to submit your application well in advance of your planned start date.

What is the Difference Between Planning Permission and Building Approval?

Planning permission deals with the external appearance and impact of your building project on the local environment. Building approval (or Building Regulations approval) focuses on the structural integrity and safety of the construction itself, ensuring it meets legal standards.

Can I Appeal if My Planning Application is Refused?

Yes, if your planning application is refused, you can appeal the decision. The appeal must be made within 6 months of the decision date. It’s often helpful to revise your plans based on the feedback provided by the council before submitting an appeal.

What Are the Penalties for Building Without Planning Permission?

If you carry out building work without the necessary planning permission, you could be served with an enforcement notice requiring you to reverse the changes. In severe cases, you may face fines or legal action. It’s crucial to obtain permission before starting your project.

How Can I Ensure My Extension Complies with Building Regulations?

To ensure your extension complies with Building Regulations, it’s important to hire a qualified architect or builder who understands the requirements. Your local council’s building control team can also provide guidance, and a Building Regulations application must be submitted before work begins. Regular inspections during construction will help ensure compliance.
