Frequently Asked Questions

Can I extend in a National Park?

National Parks have stricter controls and reduced permitted development rights.

Are side extensions allowed under permitted development?

Side extensions are permitted in some cases, but must not exceed half the width of the original house and must meet height limits.

Does permitted development apply to new-build homes?

Some new-build homes have permitted development rights removed by planning condition.

What is a Lawful Development Certificate?

A Lawful Development Certificate provides formal confirmation from the local authority that your extension complies with permitted development rules.

Can I extend above a single-storey extension?

Possibly, but this often requires planning permission and must comply with height and design considerations.

Can I extend a house that has already been extended?

Permitted development limits are cumulative, so previous extensions may reduce what is still allowed.
