Advise on Planning

  

Not all Conservatories required planning permission. You are generally allowed to develop with your permitted development rights. These are measured in cubic capacity(Internal area / volume) of your proposed conservatory. This will vary depending on the type of property your live in.

Semi- Detached or Detached
70 cubic
metres 

Terraced or End of Terrace
50 cubic
metres

 


 

 

However, there are addition factors that need to be considered.

  • Will your conservatory have any bearing on loss of light to either of your adjoining neighbours?

  • Have you had any previous extensions or a loft conversion?

  • Do you have a garage within 5 metres of the proposed conservatory

If you have already used some or all of your permitted development rights this does not mean that you are not permitted to have a conservatory, it simply means that you will require planning permission from your local borough council planning department. We can advise or assist you to get your planning permission. Speak to one of our conservatory specialist if you think that planning may be a concern for you.
