  • The decision as to whether your project requires Planning Permission depends on the size and location of the work you intend to carry out. We shall be able to determine whether or not this is required from an initial site visit.
  • There are certain works that can be carried out to your property which do not require planning permission.
  • These are categorised as Exempted Development under the Planning and Development Acts 2000 to 2006. For example, it is possible to extend a residential dwelling by up to 40sqm to the rear without seeking the permission of the planning authority, however there are certain conditions which the proposal must comply with in order to qualify for this exemption.
  • We can quickly assess your project and advise you if the works fall into the exempted development category.
  • Our experience in renovations and extensions means all you have to so is ask.
