Planning Permission in Kent

Planning permission is a system whereby local authorities can agree to building works by granting permission for the proposed work. Garage conversions will typically not need planning permission, as long as the work is internal and you don't plan to expand the structure of your property. Garage conversions tend to be protected by permitted development rights, which protect a variety of home improvement work. However, these rights have been taken away in some areas by councils, especially in new builds, therefore it is always worth verifying with your local authority. If you're intending to undertake a garage conversion on a listed building or are in a conservation area, you will require planning permission. Furthermore, if the walls of your garage are shared walls with a neighbouring property, you must obtain a Party Wall Agreement. You must abide by all building regulations corresponding to your garage conversion whether or not you need planning permission. These building regulations cover aspects of the conversion such as insulation, escape routes, fire proofing and ventilation, so it is often a good idea to use an architect to draw up technical drawings and to approve designs in order to ensure compliance with these regulations. You will likely still need to submit plans describing the change of use of the garage to your local authority. If planning permission is considered from the start of the project, it is much less likely that there will be any trouble further down the line. The majority of planning permission applications in England are approved.
