Permitted Development and Prior Approval Studies

Most residential clients lean towards permitted development, although there can be some misunderstanding of its definition. We have a good understanding of Planning legislation and the permitted development rules as opposed to Prior Approval or a Householder Application. We always advise to submit the correct application type, be it a Certificate of Lawful Development, Prior Approval or a Householder application. Remember that flats have no permitted development rights and also rights can be restricted within conservation areas; if Article 4 directions have been removed.
