Planning Permission

Do You Need Planning Permission?

Answer 4 quick questions to find out if your loft conversion likely falls under Permitted Development.

1Is your property in a conservation area or listed building?
2Is your property a flat or maisonette?
3Will the loft add more than 40m³ of new space? (50m³ for detached/semi)
4Will the roof extension be higher than the existing roof ridge?
Likely Permitted Development
Based on your answers, your loft conversion probably doesn't need planning permission. You'll still need Building Regulations approval. We recommend confirming with Cambridge City Council before starting work.
