Raising build height and planning permission

[PSC88]

Hi I have a query on tolerances when it comes to build height of the property.

 

we are demolishing a bungalow and rebuilding a 2 storey property. We want to use the existing drainage connection.

 

we have connected foundation and the Finished floor level will need to be approx 200mm above where we previously set out our FFL to get the drainage falls to work.

 

Ive looked through my planning and there nothing in terms of ridge height or finished height of the property apart from the submitted elevation drawings.

 

my question is would 200mm increase in height cause a problem for planning?

 Or should we look at other methods to make the drainage work like a new connection 

 

many thanks

Highly unlikely you will have any problems unless there are adjacent buildings where the height would be noticed. If just using FFL, you will (could) be bringing landscaping up at the end of the build so height will still be relative
