Does your conservatory comply with Regulations?


Many homeowners will rely upon the word of the installer of a conservatory when it comes to considering Planning Permission and Building Regulations.

As a rule, a conservatory will pass the permitted development test from a planning perspective and be considered as an exempt structure from a Building Regulations perspective. Further consideration however must be given in relation to planning.

Permitted development rights will generally apply provided that:-

  • They are built at ground level and are less than 30 square metres in floor area.
  • The conservatory is separated from the house by external quality walls doors or windows.
  • There should be an independent heating system with separate temperature and on/off controls (if there is heating at all).
  • Glazing in any fixed electrical installations comply with the applicable Building Regulations requirements.
  • No new structural opening between the conservatory and the existing house is created.
