If you’re about to apply for planning permission, or are wondering how fees have changed over the years, worry not!
We are here to give you the lowdown on all the costs associated with the planning stage of your project.
Costs for planning permission differ, depending on where you are in the UK.
To extend your home, you’ll be looking at…
These costs apply to alterations / extensions to existing dwellings, and only for one household.
So whether you’re going for a classic rear extension, or converting your loft, these are the fees you’ll be paying.
However, if you’re taking on a self build project, costs rise to
All these costs relate to a full planning application, fees will vary for outline planning permission applications (pre-Planning advice).
Outlines are often used on large projects to give the developer an idea of what might be possible before an architect is brought in to provide the details.
Please note: outline planning permission cannot be used to start construction.
Fees are correct as of Oct 2019
Now, before you get your checkbook out, it’s worth noting that not all extensions require planning permission.
Your home might benefit from your permitted development rights. These are part of a government scheme that allows homeowners to extend their home without the need for planning permission. However, there are strict rules about what kind of developments fall within your permitted development rights.
Because of the rules involved with permitted development, and the penalties you could face if these rules aren’t followed, we always recommend getting us on board early on in your project. We’ll not only ensure your design fits the scheme, We’ll help you apply for a Lawful Development Certificate
While not a requirement, a Lawful Development Certificate helps prove to both your local authority and future buyers that your extension was legal at the point of construction. This protects you, should the rules around permitted development change in the future.
Lawful development certificates fees are half the price of full planning applications, unless you’re obtaining one retrospectively for work you’ve already constructed.
In this case, you’ll need to pay the same price as those listed above.
