I wish to remove an internal wall
This application may be approved subject to assessment by our surveyor, Home Ownership & Asset Management Teams.
I wish to extend into the loft space above my flat
Please make sure you have checked the plans of your property in your lease to ensure that the roof space is part of your demised premises. If it is not included, we will not permit this unless the space is purchased first from the council.
If the loft is included as part of your demised premises, you may be granted permission subject to assessment by our surveyor, Home Ownership & Asset Management Teams.
I wish to build an extension or conservatory onto my ground floor flat
This will not be permitted as it can negatively impact the ability for us to maintain the rest of the building (eg, set up scaffolding).
I wish to change the layout of my flat, i.e move the location of my bathroom
This may be permitted, subject to assessment by our surveyor, Home Ownership & Asset Management Teams, provided it does not impact on other flats in the building. For example, we will not permit a bathroom to be moved above a bedroom.
I wish to subdivide my flat and create an existing dwelling
This will not be permitted.
I wish to convert my garage into a habitable room
This may be permitted, subject to assessment by our surveyor, Home Ownership & Asset Management Teams, providing it does not impact on the other flats in the block.
I wish to create HMO and make alterations so I can let multiple rooms individually
This is unlikely to be approved as it can negatively impact other flats and our ability to fulfill our obligations within our leases.
