Permitted Development vs Planning Permission Extension.

Planning Permission vs Permitted Development?

Planning Permission vs Permitted Development?

As a client you could stand to save money and get your project on site quicker by exercising your rights under permitted development. However there are some things to be considered. Permitted development is untested in land law as a relatively new change to planning law. Planning applications for domestic extensions typically cost £172 and permitted development allow you to build without the need or the cost of a planning application with the Local Authority. However you will be constrained to the rules governing permitted development. You can apply for a permitted development certificate which will ensure that if you are looking forward to selling your property you are safe in the knowledge that the application is lawful. Fingerprintstudios Architects can assist you in professional advice at the start of your construction project from concept to completion. Permitted Development VS Planning Permission requires some real consideration and appointing us as your architect we can provide the professional advice to guide you through the process.

Permitted development does not mean that your new house extension has to be bland and boring. Whilst permitted development puts some restrictions on the design, size and massing of the house extension or design proposal, this does not mean that the design can not be considered. As an architectural practice we are skilled in looking outside the box and exploring opportunities and constraints to maximise the design and finding the benefits for our clients.

We work hard to get the most for our clients, be it through a traditional Planning Application or through Permitted Development we can help you make your dreams a reality.
