PLANNING PERMISSION FOR PERMITTED DEVELOPMENT AFTER MAY 2019
In more recent years, the more relaxed Permitted Development Rights enacted since 2015, have allowed families to have up to 75% more extension space without Full Planning permission, allowing twice the usual space allowed for single-storey rear extensions. However, in May 2019, these freedoms are set to expire with no clear statement from the Government or councils on its continuance on the platform of a severe housing crisis where homeowners are clambering to ensure the optimisation of their home.
DOUBLE THE SPACE OF YOUR EXTENSION UNDER PERMITTED DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS
As planning specialist we have had an array of projects maximising their space under Permitted Development rights and are able to make the journey for clients wishing to harness their rights a more relaxed and pleasant experience, complementing design creativity and flair with an in-depth understanding of policies. Do not hesitate to contact us with projects or queries. Let’s make that New Year’s resolution to maximise the value and quality of your home come true. The time is now.
LARGER HOME EXTENSION SCHEME AFTER MAY 2019
Also, there could be additional changes and restrictions to observe again for commercial (and possibly residential applications). The reason for this confidence is that the trends of our rising population vs our housing stock issues have continued unchecked, especially in the capital. However, there is also the continued shortage of new sites and plots in congested areas, so it is not advisable to wait. Planning applications take the best part of 3 months to the process, so do take advantage of these guidelines while you can. You should be able to extend your home twice the previous maximum of 3-4m (terraced/end terrace/detached).
We always use top quality materials to achieve best results. However, the key element of our projects are the professionals, we always strive to excel our results because we believe in customer satisfaction.
At Costa Builders Group, we can prepare a complete set of architectural drawings for Planning approvals for domestic householders projects. We will provide the site plan, floor plan, elevations, section plans.
We can either design your home extension from your initial ideas or we can propose you design options in which we believe you will make best use of the space.
