Will you need permission for the home extension in Uxbridge?
It really depends on the situation, but the answer is usually no, you don’t need planning permission to extend your house. Most properties have what’s called ‘permitted development’, which means you can keep the old building the same as it was in 1948, as long as you stick to certain rules. This means you can’t go over the roof of your property, and there are restrictions on how far out your extension can go, but these will depend on what type of property you have.
