(its one or other not all rules).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If in doubt: Always apply for a certificate of lawfulness.  Speak to a Chartered Architect.  This will protect your works with ratification from the local authority that your project is in compliance with permitted development rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The rules establishing permitted development are exact and cannot be tweaked or adjusted, it can make sense to make a planning application to ensure you achieve the best possible alteration to your property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You will usually at some point want to sell your property, so getting your ducks in a row, is always the sensible approach in relation to the largest investment you will probably make &#8211; in your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We have undertaken many permitted development applications for clients this year, to allow clients to then progress, without planning risk, of being asked to rip down work that is non compliant &#8211; it is not really worth the gamble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image
