Do you need planning permission to change a flat felted roof to tiles?

The profile of the roof would change as we would have to make it higher to make it sloping

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Yes you will need to inform the planning department because the pitch of the roof will be higher. I would suggest that if you submit a scaled drawing of the existing roof and also a scaled drawing of the proposed roof that would be sufficient and cheapest way of gettting your planning approved.
