I
t is only wise to seek permission from the Planning Authorities and other interested parties
such as neighbours before embarking on a construction project.
A well written application makes it easy for permission to be granted while talking to experts saves you the problem of going back and forth over your project.
A planning application
Whenever a planning application gets turned down, it doesn’t mean the end of the road for
you because an appeal is also considered. Whether it is a new project or changes to an
existing construction or building, informing the right people on time will go a long way in
making it easy for you.
The Process of Expanding a House
When expanding an already existing house, most people make the mistake of just purchasing
building materials and bring the construction company on site. This rubs so many people the
wrong way and could lead to undesirable results.
For such a project to go well, you need to seek permission from the Planning authorities and neighbours or any other affected persons by serving them with a Planning Application. This will notify them of the changes you want to make. Consulting with Planning consultants also saves you the embarrassment of using
unsuitable materials or building where you shouldn’t.
How Much does it Cost
The cost of expanding a house after the right procedure has been followed differs from one
individual to another. This is because fixing a wall is different from putting up a perimeter
wall and such.
The difference is also caused by the Planning Authorities needed and the
process of consultation.
