Feasibility Studies / Concepts / Planning Applications/ Permitted Development Guidance
The initial design process normally culminates in the submission of a planning application to the local authority. The type, size and extent of your project will determine whether or not a planning application is necessary. Some projects can proceed under permitted development. While it should be possible in most cases to decide whether or not a proposed project qualifies as permitted development (PD) there will inevitably be instances where the decision is less clear cut.
If there is any ambiguity or question over whether your proposal passes the permitted development tests you have a number of options. It may, for instance, be possible to alter your plans to ensure they meet PD limits and conditions.
For peace of mind you may choose to apply for a Lawful Development Certificate. This is not the same as planning permission but is proof that your household building work is lawful.
This option is well worth considering even if you are sure your project is permitted development. If you should later want to sell your property an LDC may be helpful to answer queries raised by potential buyers or their legal representatives. As such, it is important that all paperwork and records relating to your property are clear and up to date.
As part of our services we offer an initial free consultation, during the course of which we will advise you as to whether or not you will be required to submit a planning application. More information can be located about this on the Planning Portal
