Planning

Planning Permission is not normally required.

Our buildings fall under permitted development (built under 2.5m high externally). Most houses, even in conservation areas and areas of outstanding beauty (AONB), have permitted development rights.

Flats and listed buildings have no permitted development rights, so will always need planning permission.

Don’t worry though, as planning is a relatively simple provess for our garden rooms and we are on-hand with this process.

Building Regs

Typically, the vast majority of garden rooms and offices will not require building regulations.

However, in some circumstances it will be necessary.

This is usually determined by the size of your room, its position within the site and proximity to the boundary and the proposed use of the garden room.

For example, if you want to include a shower room and main foul drainage connections, building regulations must be complied with.

Our team can help you through this process.
