Planning permission is a legal requirement in the UK for many construction projects, including new builds, extensions, loft conversions, and changes to a building's use. It ensures that any developments are in line with local planning policies and do not negatively impact the surrounding community or environment. Navigating the planning permission process can be complex, but our company is here to help make it as smooth as possible.

​

When is Planning Permission Required?

In general, you will need planning permission if you plan to:

• Build a new structure, such as a home or commercial property.

• Make significant changes to an existing building, including large extensions or loft conversions.

• Change the use of a building, like converting a residential property into a commercial space.

• Alter protected properties or those in designated areas, like conservation zones or listed buildings.

​

Some smaller projects may fall under Permitted Development Rights, meaning they do not require full planning permission, but still must adhere to specific rules and regulations.
