We want to get the steps from the pavement to our front door rebuilt, because they're falling down the grass bank, and one builder suggested making them wider.
I can't work out from the online planning portal whether we would need planning permission for that.
Our house is lower than the road. We have a grass bank which runs along the side and then across almost half the front of the house. We have 3 steps which come down in front of the front door. There is then a slab path which runs from 1 slab the grass bank side of the door to the drive, which runs along the other side of the house and is 2 cars long. We have a narrow flower bed between the path and house, then a larger bed between the path and curve from the drive to the road.
We would effectively be adding 3 slabs (the standard 50-60cm square patio type) to the front garden, which would run off either into the bank or the flower bed.
Everything online is about needing permission for a driveway, and no help for this.
If it makes any difference to the fact the wider steps would be coming down from the pavement, it's a private road and we have no wall or fence onto our boundary.
