Do I need planning permission for fascia work?
For most routine property upkeep, such as replacing your existing fascias or giving them a fresh coat of paint, you typically will not require planning permission.
However, it is absolutely essential that you contact your Local Planning Authority (LPA) before you start any work if your property is considered a protected building, or if it is located within any of these specific areas:
A listed building (a structure recognised for its special architectural or historic interest).
A conservation area (an environment with special architectural or historic qualities that merit preservation or enhancement).
A national park.
An Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).
