Permitted development could be described as the planning departments worst nightmare, when implemented in October 1st 2008 the new planning legislation, allows the house owner certain rights and development benefits, without the need of any formal planning consent.  Known as Permitted Development.  

This should therefore be a simple process of reading the clause's from the official GPDO legislation, and following the guidelines, not so the document can be interpreted in many ways, not making a simple clean cut way to successful development.  

However, inhus are experts on permitted development and have proven inhus installs with enforced cases, by planning enforcement, where permitted development has been successfully achieved for living accommodation.  Now opening up the possibilities for inhus annex living accommodation developments all over the UK,  but you follow the exact requirements as set out within the Permitted development regulations and have proven case documents to back up your own development.

Question:  Can I move my extended family into a inhus living accommodation annex within permitted development without the need for planning permission.

Answer: Simply yes You can. The size of your inhus annex will depend upon certain requirements, but don't worry our test case is the best example of what you can develop without planning permission. 

This inhus development meet permitted development easily and we could have added two / three extra rooms if the garden we installed was a little larger.  All inhus annex accommodation suites must comply with building regulations, for instance, with this inhus annex we had to pour 16 tonne of concrete into 4 rafts to meet building regulations and install a separate sewage pumping station, which when the tank meet a certain level of sewage it pumped the sewage back up to the main sewage drain network on the customers driveway.  This was because the garden level was lower then the main drain.  We also installed 1m x 1m cubed soak away pods for rain water, 1 heavy duty armour cable electric supply and telephone, network and  TV cables.

The specification of this inhus annex was stunning it came complete with TV, Satellite and network points. Underfloor heating with a high performance underlay which gives added protection against moisture, soundproofing and comfort and then finished with a Harvester Oak heavy duty laminated flooring system for ease of use and cleaning.

The walls use the new inhuspanel system which gives great U values, added structural strength with added soundproofing properties which allows for a peaceful nights rest.

The walls are finished with a designer look interior colour system and feature feature wall colour of Blue reflection.

Following into the bathroom, which again is fully insulated to building regulations, is fully ceramic tiled, with a white shimmer riven tile on the walls to bounce of all the natural light, and a bronze effect non-slip flooring tile which also has timer controlled electric underfloor heating system, which can be programmed 10 mins before you step out of your steaming hot shower powered by an inhus instant water supplied system.  All drainage and water supply piping are hidden within the inhuspanel wall so no unsightly piping can be seen and any time.

Also comes complete with a chrome heated towel rail to keep your towels warm and ready for you.

The exterior of your inhus annex is normally cladded in the highest grade Canadian western Red cedar kiln dried and fixed using stainless steel nails to ensure no nasty staining in the years to come.  You can also choose between rosewood UPVC or aluminium gunmetal grey windows and as an extra concealed blinds situated within the argon filled double glazing.

With stainless steel up-down lighters and 10 blue or white LED decking lights, finishes your inhus annex to look stunning both in day or night, summer or winter, sunshine or rain.

An inhus annex is always designed and installed to each customers personal specification and land requirements, but can be fully installed to the above specification for as little as £35,000.
