Tips

• Making provisions for a party wall survey, approved heritage consultant and quantity surveyor may save some precious time and headaches.

Did you know?

• Where a new external plant is proposed, a noise survey and acoustic design submission may be required.
• For historic buildings, works in conservation areas, or significant development sites, the city planning authority may expect a pre-application meeting. This can add one month to the overall permitting period.
• It can be a criminal offence to undertake unapproved works on a listed building.
• Separate agreements are required for party walls where the site shares boundary walls or structures with neighbours.
