General Planning & Building advice for householders can be found at the UK Government's website.

There are some alterations and building works, which will not require a 'planning permission' application. These are covered under 'Permitted Development Rights', however these rights may not apply, or may have been withdrawn from your property. We always advise our customers accordingly and would recommend that advice is always sought directly from your local council planning department, regarding any proposed development before commencing any work. 

Interactive mini-guides regarding Permitted Development are available for:

Extensions, Loft Conversions, Porches, Outbuildings
