Do I need planning permission to turn a balcony into ensuite?
Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 2.54 PM
We have a balcony on the first floor of our terraced house, infront of our bathroom and to the side of our front bedroom. Two other houses have converted this into a ensuite, do we need planning permission? Thanks
Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Any work that changes the external appearance is normally subject to planning, and building regulation approval.
You can check out the government planning portal website here, great source of information http://www.planningportal.gov.uk/permission/
