Planning Applications

J FLYOD ENGINEERING

​ If you are going to build a house, you will need planning permission or if you are going to build an extension or make other changes to your existing house, you may need planning permission. Some small extensions and conservatories do not need planning permission but you should make sure of this before you start building. We will be able to advise you about this and tell you how to apply as well as give you general advice about your application. We will also be able to tell you whether your proposals are likely to comply with the development plan for your area. ​

There are 3 types of planning permission: permission, outline permission, and permission consequent on outline permission. The most common type is permission, sometimes called full permission. However, if you want to see if the planning authority agrees in principle to you building a house on a particular site or building a large extension, you might apply for outline permission, which will require you to produce only the plans and particulars that are necessary to enable the planning authority to make a decision in relation to the siting, layout or other proposals for development. If you get outline permission, you will have to submit detailed drawings and receive consequent permission before you start building work. Generally, outline permissions have a 3-year duration.

It is an offense to carry out any work that requires planning permission, without planning permission, and the offense can carry very heavy fines and imprisonment. However, if a genuine mistake has been made, it is possible to apply for planning permission to retain an unauthorized development. This permission may be refused, in which case, the unauthorized development will have to be demolished.

What we, at J Floyd Engineering, can offer.

We will advise if a project requires planning permission and produce the relevant information for making an application to the local authority. We may also be engaged to provide services in connection with planning appeals, liaising with planning authorities on behalf of clients.

We can liaise with the local planning authority for any unauthorized development and can provide exemption certificates if the development is exempt from the planning process. 

A sample of a Granted Planning Permission set of Drawings is below.
