Proposed roof extension and access to roof terrace.
Erection of a rear roof extension including the formation of a hip to gable roof extension; installation of 2no. rooflights in the front roofslope; installation of a door to replace existing window to the rear elevation at second floor level to provide access to existing roof terrace.
4D Planning were instructed to assist the client with the design of a rear roof extension as well as the installation of 2 rooflights in the front slope of the roof for light and ventilation. The client also wished to have access to the roof above his home in order to be able to have a usable roof terrace, and we therefore applied for planning to replace the existing window at the second floor rear elevation with a door in order to achieve this. Hammersmith and Fulham Council granted planning permission.
Navigating the planning permission process for roof terraces and roof extensions in Hammersmith and Fulham can be a complex endeavour. Homeowners often face strict planning constraints designed to preserve the character and aesthetics of the area. Understanding these constraints and relevant planning policies is crucial for achieving a successful outcome.
Without working with an experienced planning firm, you are likely to stumble across issues with your application. This can be a lack of compliance with the validation requirements, missing information, incorrectly filled forms and a design that does not reflect the surroundings or correspond to the planning guidance. Therefore it is strongly advised to consult with a chartered planning firm such as 4D Planning.

For instance, any proposed development must not adversely impact the amenity of neighbouring properties or the overall street scene.
