Today’s episode looks in detail at permitted development regulations along with Article 4 Areas and what this means for property improvements.

Gordon explains in detail the best ways to work with both permitted development regulations and how to move forward if you are in an Article 4 area.

 

In park run news, Gordon has beaten his previous personal best. An altered routine included a warm-up and running without Snow (due to the heat) this resulted in a  new personal best for Gordon and has prompted him to target warming up preparation prior to events as a priority in the future. Listen in to find out what else Gordon has been doing and how you can make property improvements where ever you are.

• As part of permitted development, you can;
• Build a porch

• There are guidelines and rules for each of the permitted developments and it's vital that you comply with these.
• There is a clear definition of the ‘original building’ which must be adhered to in order to apply permitted development regulations correctly.
