OUTBUILDING CONSTRUCTION

Outbuilding Construction

On our travels we are often asked to do other jobs while we’re there, fortunately, we can turn our hand to all manner of property maintenance work, including the construction of brand new outbuildings.

Mostly these outbuildings are constructed with a concrete base, a timber frame, and box-profile sheeting as shown. They can be free-standing, lean-to, or extensions to other buildings.

Outbuildings don’t need planning permission, they are considered to be peritted development, but that’s subject to a few limitations, for instance in the Peak District they can’t be more than 10 square meters if they’re more than 20 metres from the house. Contact us and we’ll let you know if planning permission will be needed, usually it isn’t, but if it is we can help with process too.
