Do I need planning permission for basements

Converting a basement can be a cost effective way to increase your living space. It adds value to your home and avoids the time, effort and costs associated with moving home.

Converting an existing residential cellar or basement into a living space is in most cases unlikely to require planning permission as long as it is not a separate unit or unless the usage is significantly changed or a light well is added, which alters the external appearance of the property.
