The construction of new buildings, alterations and additions or a change of use of land or buildings will, in most cases, require planning permission.
Planning permission is not generally needed for internal alterations to buildings that do not affect their structure or external appearance, for small external works, or most works of repair and maintenance.
Different planning requirements apply in Conservation Areas or for Listed Buildings
You have certain Permitted Development Rights for both domestic and commercial proposals.
Changes of use may also be permitted without requiring planning permission, These are set out in the Use Classes Order.
The Building Regulations cover building work as defined in Regulation 3 of the Regulations. This means that if you want to put up a new building, extend or alter an existing one, provide fittings in a building, then Building Regulations will probably apply.
For information on whether planning or building control permission is required, please select your project on the right.
