​

Although extensions can sometimes be exempt from needing planning permission, this is only through a general national permission  granted by the General Permitted Development Order. 

​

This general permission is subject to a list of conditions and the right to build extensions without a planning application can sometimes be removed by conditions of previous planning applications.

​

APOLLO consultants can confirm whether planning permission would be needed and can draw plans for you if it is required. Using a planning consultant for extensions also means you can plan what your extension will look like before it is built and will know what impact it will have on the use and appearance of your house.
