Planning Permission in Conservation Areas

Every local authority in England has at least one conservation area defined as having ‘special architectural or historic interest, the character or appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance’.

Over the past 30 years, having installed replacement doors and windows in homes throughout Surrey, Berkshire and Hampshire, we are aware that there are many properties located in conservation areas.

Before carrying out any significant work to your home, we would advise that you check with your local planning authority whether you will need listed building consent. We are happy to help you with this process and can put you in touch with local experts who can advise on the most up-to-date building regulations. We will be more than happy to help you complete the necessary paperwork and we will continue to remind you when deadlines are nearing and prompt you where necessary along the way.
