Does my Pergola require planning permission?
As a general rule from the 1st October 2008, garden structures (including pergolas) do not require planning permission as long as the following points are followed:-
No structure forward of the principle elevation fronting a highway. awning hire london.
Must be single storey with a maximum eaves height of 2.5mtrs and a total height of less than or equal to 4mtrs for a pitched roof or 3mtrs for any other type of roof.
Within 2mtrs of a boundary the maximum height cannot exceed 2.5mtrs.awning hire london.
Garden structures must have no verandas, balconies or raised platforms.
Where no more than 50% of the existing land around the ‘original house’ is already covered by garden buildings.
Within the curtilage of a listed building planning permission must be sought.
In Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, National Parks, World Heritage Sites, the maximum area to be covered by an outdoor structure, more than 20mtrs from the original house, must be limited to an area not exceeding 10sq mtrs. However, any buildings at the side of the property, within these nominated areas, will require planning permission.
As local authorities may interpret these guidelines in different ways, it is always best to give your Local Planning Office a quick telephone call to discuss what you are intending to do, before you proceed, to ensure that you will meet the regulations for your own particular area.

All our pergolas come with durable polyester powder coating, and are available in a range of 7 selected colours as standard. This includes a variety of contemporary white, grey and black shades and a mixture of metallic, matte and gloss finishes. These colours have been specially chosen to complement the sleek, modern character of our designs, but if you have a specific look in mind for your project, you can also pick from the full range of 100+ RAL colours and the option of two different shades for the framework and roof blades, to create a truly bespoke feel.
To reduce construction time and minimise disruption to your schedule, our bioclimatic pergolas have been designed for fast and simple installation. Their fully mechanical assembly method means they can be transported using smaller vehicles and maneuvered through tighter spaces before being built to their full size. This helps to overcome access issues that are common with older properties and ensures installations can be carried out in an efficient way without compromising on quality.
