The Complete Guide to Permitted Development Rights in the UK [2022]

Permitted development rights are a scheme created by the government that allows you to extend/renovate your home without the need for a full planning application.

For some homes in England, this scheme expanded in 2020 to include bigger projects and more options for home improvement. To learn more about these new rules and your permitted development rights in 2022 in the UK, read our dedicated blog post: https://resi.co.uk/advice/planning-pe...

Here are the types of projects covered by permitted development rights as of now:
Rear extension
Side extension
Two-stores extension
Garage conversion
Loft conversion

For each of these extensions, you’ll obviously need the obey specific rules and requirements to be able to use your permitted development rights. Among the requirements your project will need to cover, you’ll find:
UK Building Regulations
Party Wall Matters
Build Over Agreement
Right to light
Etc.

Lastly, to protect your project built under permitted development rights, we advise you to get a lawful development certificate. This document essentially proves your project was legal at the point of construction and is a useful way of getting your local planning department to review your designs. What’s more, you’ll find many potential buyers requesting some documentation regarding any improvements you’ve made, so they can ensure they won’t inherit any legal problems.
