Understanding Permitted Development Rights
Before delving into the problems that can arise, let us take a moment to understand permitted development rights. These rights provide homeowners with the opportunity to carry out certain types of building works without the need for a formal planning application.
Ensuring Compliance with Building Regulations
One common issue with loft conversions carried out without the necessary planning permission is the violation of building regulations. Building regulations are in place to ensure the safety and structural soundness of any alterations made to a property.
A loft conversion must comply with several building regulations, including fire safety, insulation, structural stability, and means of escape. When these regulations are disregarded or overlooked, it can lead to serious safety hazards and potential legal consequences.
