Planning and building rules in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire

In Scotland the key step is the building warrant, which must be granted before work begins. Planning permission is decided separately by the council, and work on shared walls is handled under your title deeds rather than a party wall act.

Like-for-like re-roofing does not usually need planning permission in Scotland, except on listed buildings and in some conservation areas.

What can change the price or programme?

Heavier tiles than the original can overload old rafters.
Neighbouring roofs on semis and terraces need careful junction details.
