Do I need planning permission in Batley?

In England a porch is usually permitted development if its ground floor area is no more than 3 m² measured externally, no part is over 3 m high, and no part is within 2 m of a boundary next to a road.

The planning position for a specific Batley address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.

Building over or within 3 m of a public sewer needs the water company's consent, usually through a build-over agreement, before the foundations go in.

If the work involves a shared wall, building on the boundary, or digging foundations within 3 m (sometimes 6 m) of a neighbour's building, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies and notice must be served before work starts: two months for work to a party wall, one month for new walls on the boundary and for excavations.

Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).

What we take care of

  • Front door, glazing and electrics
  • Tiled, slate or flat roof
  • Brick, render or oak frame walls
  • Foundations and drainage for rainwater
  • Design to suit the house style
  • Planning check against the porch limits
