we had it years ago for a double garage that we moved but now i want to build a brick replacement building will i need planning permission whats the rules anyone know ?

 

I think planning permission is only valid for 3 years then u have to re-apply. Think the same goes for changing the plans from the originals

 

wank anyone have an idea on how much it costs these days for planning permission ?

 

Sure that's correct but I'm also sure that a brick built garage is classed as a permament building so you can't just build on the foot print of any existing 'temporary' structure ie. a garage not made of bricks.

 

I've been told about something called 'building regs', not sure what it is but i'm guessing it's similar and easier to obtain???

Someone on here is bound to know more

 

cheers for your help guys anyone else

 

What about ''permitted development'' ??
I'm just looking into this for a garage that I'm going to build! My take on this goes thus: You are allowed to build an 'outbuilding' within 'permitted development'' rules IF -- 1:It does not cover more than 50% of your garden space , 2: Is more than 5 metres from your house , 3: Is not more than 3 metres high (for a flat roof),or not more than 4 metres high (if it's a pitched roof) i.e^. Note that there is NO limit on the actual plan size,other than the 50% rule ! You would of course need 'building regs' approval . This is purely to ensure that you build it to an acceptable standard.

My garage will be 36 ft long x 30 wide (1080 sq ft,if my maths is correct).

Hope this helps!
