Do you understand the documentation needed for extensions and building works?

If you are moving home, do you understand the paperwork needed around extensions and building works?

Whether buying or selling, there is common confusion around the difference between planning permission and building regulations.

We examine this in the new edition of the Beaconsfield Local magazine out today.

Our new article explains why the existence of planning permission or permitted development alone is not always enough for extensions or reconfiguration works to a property.  Often there is only a satisfactory picture if there has been building regulations approval, or evidence that such approval was not required.

You can read an electronic version of the magazine here and our article is on page 34.

We continuing to be making regular contributions to Beaconsfield Local magazine, so be sure to check out future issues every two months.  The magazine has gone from strength to strength and helps residents in Beaconsfield and surrounding areas including Forty Green, Knotty Green and Seer Green find local businesses, events, community information and community activities.  Its aim is to deliver all the local information you might need, at your fingertips.
