Planning rules that apply in Annan
In Scotland the questions are whether the extension falls within householder permitted development (Classes 1A to 1D) or needs planning permission from the council, and the building warrant, which is required before construction begins and is followed by a completion certificate.
The planning position for a specific Annan address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
In Scotland a building warrant from the council is needed before work starts on almost any extension, and a completion certificate is issued when the work is accepted. Building standards are set in the Scottish technical handbooks.
Scotland has no Party Wall Act. Where work affects a shared wall or a neighbour's land, we agree access, protection and making good with your neighbour in writing before work starts.
Applications are decided by your council as planning authority.

We cover Annan and the postcode districts DG12. Neighbouring towns we cover include Dumfries (15 miles), Stranraer (71 miles).
Across Scotland, extensions follow Scottish planning and building standards, including the building warrant process, which we build into the programme from the start.

A lawful development certificate is not compulsory for permitted development, but it is the cleanest proof that the extension was lawful when you come to sell. We usually recommend one.
