Planning and approvals in Chepstow
In Wales small porches are usually permitted development within size and boundary limits similar to England's. We check the current Welsh limits for your address.
Homes in conservation areas, national parks, National Landscapes (AONBs) and World Heritage Sites have tighter rules, so we always check the property's status and planning history before design starts.
Building over or within 3 m of a public sewer needs the water company's consent before the foundations go in.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your county or county borough council, or the national park authority).
Extensions in and around Chepstow
Postcode districts we cover around Chepstow include NP16. The same team covers Monmouth (11 miles), Newport, Gwent (14 miles), Cwmbran (14 miles), Pontypool (16 miles), all within easy reach.
Welsh housing ranges from stone terraces in the valleys to render-and-slate houses and modern estates, and the Welsh planning rules differ from England's in several places.
