Stockport window approvals
Replacement windows can involve both Building Regulations and heritage controls
Stockport's Building Control service treats domestic replacement windows as regulated work, while Article 4 Directions can remove normal permitted-development rights in protected areas. Check both routes before ordering made-to-measure units for a heritage-sensitive property.
Replacement windows require a Building Regulations compliance route
Stockport says building owners installing replacement windows or qualifying glazed doors must obtain Building Regulations consent and have the installation inspected unless the work is dealt with through an appropriate competent-person route.

Article 4 Directions can require planning permission for window changes
Stockport says Article 4 Directions in conservation areas can remove permitted-development rights for alterations to windows, including changes in materials such as uPVC. Several areas across the borough are covered by these directions.
