Permitted development
Please use the Planning Portal Interactive House Guides (external link) to find out whether you need planning permission.
The government has also published a householder technical guide which can be viewed on the GOV.UK website (external link).
Please note we do not provide informal advice as to whether planning permission is required. We’d advise you to apply for a Lawful Development Certificate.
