Planning and building rules in Ayr
Projects in Scotland need a building warrant from the council before any building work starts, and a completion certificate once it is finished. Planning permission is a separate decision. The Party Wall etc. Act does not apply in Scotland; shared walls are governed by title deeds and the law of the tenement where relevant.
Bathroom refits do not usually need planning permission; new bathrooms or drainage changes may need a building warrant.
What should I think about before starting?
- Wet rooms need a fall to the drain and full waterproofing.
- Moving a toilet depends on the soil pipe route.
How does the project run?

- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
