Permitted Development (PD) allows certain home improvements without full planning permission — but only if strict rules are followed.

Why PD Drawings Still Matter

Even where planning permission is not required, you still need:

Accurate PD-compliant drawings

Confirmation of volume, height, and boundary rules

Clear documentation for builders and Building Control

Many homeowners also apply for a Lawful Development Certificate to formally confirm compliance.

Online PD drawings reduce risk and protect future property value.
