Do I need planning permission in County Armagh?
In Northern Ireland a small porch is usually permitted development within limits on floor area, height and distance from a road; larger porches need planning permission from the council, and building control rules still apply.
Homes in conservation areas, areas of townscape character and listed buildings have tighter rules, so we always check the property's status and planning history before design starts.
In Northern Ireland building control is run by the councils under the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland). We submit full plans or a building notice and book the inspections through to completion.
Building close to a public sewer needs the agreement of NI Water, which we check during design.
Applications are decided by your council, which handles local planning in Northern Ireland.
