Permitted Development Guidelines

Even if your extension falls under the guidelines, it is always recommended to apply for a Permitted Development certificate. You will then have total peace of mind that you are staying within the rules and boundaries. Plus, this certificate provides evidence that all work is lawful during construction and therefore any complaints made by a neighbour can be easily handled.

At happinest we can build a strong application on your behalf that will ensure peace of mind both during and after your home improvement is completed.

    Definitely not – The size of the extension, its location and the type of windows will all decipher whether permitted development is permissible. Larger extensions are more likely to require planning permission.
