Do glass verandas require planning permission?
Typically, no, planning permission is not required for installing a veranda. In fact, 95% of SunSpaces verandas don’t require planning permission to install.
Of course, whether or not planning permission is required depends on a number of different factors, including the property itself and the land you’ll be building on. Some examples of cases where a property may require planning permission to install a veranda include:
