Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need drawings for a Lawful Development Certificate?

Yes. Accurate scaled drawings are required to demonstrate compliance.

Do permitted development rights expire?

Permitted development rights generally remain unless removed by condition or Article 4 Direction.

What happens if permitted development rights have been removed?

If rights have been removed by planning condition or Article 4 Direction, you will likely need to submit a full planning application before building.

How much does a planning application cost?

Fees vary depending on project type and local authority charges.

Can I extend above a single-storey extension?

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

How high can my extension be?

Height limits vary, but rear extensions under permitted development generally cannot exceed four metres for detached houses or three metres for others.
