Do I need a building regulations application (quick list)?
Building Regulations applications are needed for most construction projects:
New buildings
- All new buildings except agricultural buildings
- Garages that are not fully detached and under 30 square metres
Extensions
- All extensions no matter how small
- Some conservatories and porches (many are exempt but these must be separated from the house by doors and can’t be heated)
- Roof extensions, balconies and roof terraces
- Basements and basement extensions
Which projects are exempt? Find out here
