Selfbuildsarah Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Sorry, this is a real newbie question! How detailed does the external materials side of a planning application have to be? Is it sufficient to say slate coloured roof, mid brown timber cladding, off white render, black widow frames etc or do you have to be more specific? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conor Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Be as vague as possible and let them come to you for more details. E.g. specify along the likes of "concrete tiled roof", "rendered walls" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevilDamo Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 I usually just say facing brick/render/tile hanging/slates/tiles, etc… to match existing. If you’re in a conservation area, is a listed building or are dramatically changing the external finish, the LPA may ask that you provide details and/or samples of the proposed finishes post Planning approval. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
