At the end of any project which requires planning authorisation (a déclaration préalable or permis de construire), when you think that everything is finally finished, there are still two more actions to complete:
- submit a declaration of completion and conformity of work * (DAACT - Déclaration attestant l'achèvement et la conformité des travaux) to the planning office
- declare the work done to tax authorities (within your Biens immobiliers section on imports) and pay the development tax

All the information you need for both you can find in your planning authorisation documents.

If you need help with admin procedures or simple advice, get in touch!

�* Note, for certain projects, you might need to provide certificates showing compliance with certain construction regulations (e.g. accessibility, acoustic, environmental and thermal regulations, etc). In those cases an independent technical inspector or an engineer will need to be consulted.

We finally finished our little side project and have installed our test window. We managed to add double glazing while maintaining exactly the same dimensions and proportions. Upgraded with a crémone, rather than the simple wooden bar closer and hinged trickle vents.
7 more windows to go…
Don’t forget a Déclaration Préalable maybe required for anything that changes the external appearance of your house.

Today’s project: detailed drawings for replacement wooden windows. We’re developing a prototype to determine how to include double glazing while matching existing window dimensions and profiles.
Note: your new windows might change the exterior appearance of the building (e.g. if replaced with a different model). This work will be subject to a déclaration préalable (DP). If you need help applying for one, please get in touch!

Off to a sketchy start. While a simple plan view is ideal for configuring a layout, when dealing with complex spaces, a 3D sketch can give a much better feel for the space. This is an ongoing study for the conversion of a garage into a kitchen, dressing room and two bathrooms.

Looking forward to the sunshine!
