Home extensions and planning
New Member Post: 1 Dyddiad Ymuno: 20/06/2024 Bostiadau diweddarHello everyone,
I'm considering a loft extension for my home in London and I'm trying to understand the current legislation and planning permission requirements. I've heard that the rules can be quite specific and vary depending on the borough.
Do I need planning permission for a loft extension in London, or can it fall under permitted development?
Thanks in advance for any advice or insights!
Best regards,
Herko Ltd.

This is very much a conversation you need to have with the Planning team in the Borough where your property is - but there is some general gudiance here you might want to read as well

they will probably refer you to their pre-application service for a fee.
was the general gudiance link here any use to you?
Let me know and I'll see if I can help further.
Herko Ltd appears to be a building company.
You will need planning permission for a loft extension in London, if it does not comply with permitted development rules.

It is straightforward, if you live in a house in which the whole house is one family unit then the rules of Permitted Development apply, However, if it is not a single-family house the rule of permitted Development does not apply.
You can send me the address and I will advise you.
