🏡 Do you need planning permission for a conservatory? Permitted development rights give you the freedom to make some changes to your home without needing to apply for full planning permission. This usually covers most homes; however, it is best to be prepared!
📏 Key things that affect whether you need permission:
✅ Height (max 4m)
✅ Depth (3-4m standard, up to 8m with Prior Approval)
✅ Garden coverage (under 50%)
✅ Listed building or conservation area status
Getting these details wrong can lead to additional costs or delays, so it’s important to plan ahead! If you’re unsure whether you need planning permission, send us a message, and we can help you figure it out.
