Get pre-planning advice

Find out how to get informal advice on whether planning permission for a householder or non-householder development would be necessary or likely to be approved.

If after checking the Planning Portal and the existing planning permissions for a property you are still unsure as to whether planning permission is required you can submit an enquiry to us. We will tell you if planning permission is required, and if your project is likely to receive planning approval. We will make all the checks regarding constraints, policies and history of the site for you.

Do you need and are you likely to gain planning permission?
