Make a building regulations application
Applying by building notice
The building notice procedure is simpler than full plans. However, it is ideally only suitable for minor domestic work. For example:
- removing 1 or 2 internal load-bearing walls
- a small single storey domestic extension
- a new boiler, or other heating appliances
- a new chimney or flue
- a new detached garage, carport and outbuildings where not exempt from the building regulations
- new or replacement windows, rooflights and external doors
- replacing a roof covering a new bathroom, shower or toilet
- new drainage or connection to sewer
- underpinning cavity wall insulation
You cannot submit a building notice for work to a non-domestic building.
You can apply by:
- building notice on the planning portal
- in Aylesbury Vale you can also apply using MyAccount
- in Chiltern and South Bucks you can submit a building notice form
- in Wycombe you can apply by completing a building regulations application form [Word | 1.8MB]
If you need to apply for replacement windows, rooflights or doors please use the replacement doors and windows application form.
