Windows - planning permission


Landy10

Recommended Posts

Hello


I've recently placed an order to have new double glazed timber sash windows installed on my property. These will replace the old, draughty aluminium windows currently in the house. I happened to be speaking to a planning person at Southwark Council and made a passing comment about this. He has just told me I need planning permission for this! It will take 8 weeks! This is after the date my new windows are meant to be installed.


I'm also told I need to include front elevation drawings with my application. Does anyone know a local architect that would be able to do these kind of drawings really quickly and not charge over the odds?


I'd really appreciate any feedback as now I'm worried I will lose my deposit!


Thanks!

Building Regs doesn't overide Planning Permission, they are separate issues.

Yes, a FENSA company can do the Building Regs side of things, but planning may still be required regardless i.e Conservation Areas and Listed Buildings.

    • I’m currently conducting exploratory research into menstrual health education in UK secondary schools and would really value the insight of PSHE leads, Heads of Year, or pastoral staff.    The research aims to understand:   How the menstrual cycle is currently taught within the RSHE framework Where schools feel confident — and where there may be gaps Whether students are taught and  asking questions around the full menstrual cycle, symptoms, wellbeing and conditions such as PMS/PMDD or endometriosis How schools support students in feeling empowered to understand their bodies and seek help appropriately Whether education around nutrition, lifestyle, and menstrual wellbeing is currently addressed   The long-term goal is to explore whether there is a need for additional, age-appropriate, medically informed support on the menstrual cycle.  I’m not selling a programme and there is no obligation beyond a 30 minute informal chat online (Unpaid). All conversations will be confidential and used only to inform the research. If you work in a UK secondary school and would be willing to share your perspective, I would be extremely grateful to hear from you. Please comment below or email me [email protected] Thank you for the vital work you do. Best wishes, Emma       
    • Nice topic and nice song!  1) Definitely top of Canonbie, looking North. 2) What used to be Francesca Cabrini school at the top of FHR. 3) Honor Oak playground, next to Camberwell New cemetery.
