Do I need planning permission to change the colour and size of my roof tiles?

[Mike Wynn]

I am planning to change the size and colour of the roof tiles on my existing bungalow from terracotta-coloured plain tiles (267mm x 168mm) to larger SL8 grey tiles (390mm x 420mm). Having looked around the surrounding houses lots of residents have changed their tiles over the years to grey or a lighter brown and having followed the relevant steps through my local planning department Tewksbury Borough Council they do not suggest permission needs to be sought. 

 

I would just like to check if changing to a larger size and different colour will be satisfactory to the planners? As I will be selling the house I want to make sure I do not face any problems down the line.
