Building rules
Hi I have just joined the site
I would like to know if you need permission to replace windows put patio doors in
And extend a house
Who knows the rules an architect or a builder ?
Thank you

Yes you’ll need permission
We had a second bathroom installed, our builder filled the application form in, then the town hall sent an inspector round to see where the work was to be done & approved it.
As I recall, the builder had to provide an itemised & costed list of materials on the application form

Hi Andrew
Do you mean you had an extension built or you refurbished an old bathroom?
Do builders know exactly what can be done?
Do the same rules apply in all districts
Thank you for your help

We had a bathroom fitted in an existing non-bathroom room.
I’d expect a good builder to know what’s required in your local area. I can’t comment what’s required in your area, but would be amazed if you could build an extension without gaining permission.
we were told in our area, permission is needed for quite small jobs, such as replacing internal doors.
I suggest your next step, would be to speak a builder & chat through what you want doing
