Planning Applications Northamptonshire - Managed For You

Applying for planning permission can often feel complex, but with the right support, it doesn’t have to be.

Clear process

At DAMAX Building Solutions, we help homeowners and developers across Northamptonshire manage every step of their planning application, ensuring projects move forward quickly, efficiently, and in full compliance with local requirements.
Whether you’re extending your home, building a new property, or converting existing space, our experienced team provides expert guidance and handles the details for you. We make the process clear and straightforward, so you can focus on your project rather than paperwork.

A planning application is a formal request for permission to carry out building work that might affect your local environment or community. Local authorities such as West Northamptonshire Council review these applications to ensure developments are safe, sustainable, and in keeping with the area’s character.

Submitting a proper application is essential before starting most new builds, extensions, or structural changes. It confirms your plans meet all national and local regulations, including those related to access, privacy, light, and environmental impact.

When You Need Planning Permission

Not every project requires planning permission, but many do. You will usually need to submit a planning application if your work includes:

• Building a new property
• Constructing an extension that changes your home’s footprint or height
• Converting a loft, garage, or outbuilding
• Changing the use of a building (for example, turning a shop into a flat)
• Adding features that alter the exterior design, such as balconies or large windows

Some minor works may fall under “permitted development rights,” but these can vary depending on your location and the type of property. DAMAX can review your plans and confirm exactly what permissions are required before you start.
