Liverpool: common questions

How quickly can work start in Liverpool?

Do I need permission for car park surfacing in Liverpool?

Householder permitted development covers houses only. Car parks, yards, flats and business premises follow normal planning rules: resurfacing an existing area on the same footprint is generally fine, while a new car park, a change of use or new drainage may need permission. Check with the planning authority before any new hard area.
