Hi 

I have a 10x5mtr outbuilding that I need to have a new roof on 

Originally it was a tiled roof but iam looking to having a metal roof installed 

Would I need planning permission/ building regs for this change ? 

Thanks Matt

Are there any previous PD restrictions which relate to the outbuilding? If not, then providing you meet the PD requirements, then nothing to do with Planning.

 

It would require Building Regulations.

There is this for houses but I don't think it covers outbuildings..

 

A "similar appearance" rule is part of the General Permitted Development Order (GPDO) in England, specifically regarding roof alterations.

 

Under The Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015, Schedule 2, Part 1, Class C covers:

 

 "Any other alteration to the roof of a dwellinghouse." 

 

 "The materials used in any exterior work shall be of a similar appearance to those used in the construction of the exterior of the existing dwelling house."
