Hello everyone,
do you need a building permit / planning permission for a carport and a garden shed? We are planning to build a carport and have heard from neighbors that you have to apply for a permit. Is that really the case? It’s just a carport after all. The same question applies to the planned garden shed. Do you also need a permit for that? Thanks in advance for your information!
Best regards, Janni 🙂

my carport is now finished. I haven’t had any trouble with the neighbors either. They also believe that what I do on my property is none of their business, as long as they are not disturbed in any way. So, lucky me! 😎

the principle is great. I need to remember that. Many people should take it to heart as well. 😀 That would lead to far fewer neighborhood disputes.

The whole thing about needing permits for everything is quite annoying... especially the fact that you don’t have to get approval just to have a mouse hole in the kitchen...
