Permitted Development

Understanding permitted development rights can be crucial for maximising development opportunities without the need for planning permission. Crossman Planning Consultancy offers expert guidance, drawing on their permitted development expertise, in navigating the complex statutory framework associated with permitted development.

In some cases, certain developments are classified as ‘permitted development’ and do not require planning permission. However, the rules governing permitted development can be complex. With our extensive experience, we assist clients in understanding the scope of permitted development and how to leverage it effectively.

Even though permitted development rights may exist, they can be restricted by environmental and sustainability factors. In such instances, prior approval from the council may be necessary. Crossman Planning Consultancy has a proven track record in successfully coordinating prior approval applications, ensuring proposed works align with regulatory requirements.
