removing cement render - do I need planning permission?

[juliejulie]

HI

Can someone please confirm if I need planning permission to remove the cement render on the front and back of my house (outside). I like in a terraced house.

Do i also need planning permission if i were to sand blast the bricks as well?

thanks

No - providing your house is not listed. You also have to be careful what you replace it with if you are in a conservation area. Not in a conservation area - no problem.

thanks for your reply.

We live in a town where a section south of the railway section is in a conversation area. But we are in the North which is not a conservation area. I assume this will be ok? Or do you think it may have a small issue because we are 15 mins walk from a conservation area?

One day we will need planning permission to go to the toilet

No. You're either in or out.

You may need b'regs approval due to falling within the 25% renovation rule, regarding heat loss etc.
