What rules apply in Gillingham?

Gillingham falls under Medway Council for planning and building control, which is the place to check if your home is listed or in a conservation area.

In England you can usually replace a garage door without planning permission. Check first if the house is listed, sits in a conservation area or Article 4 area, or was built with planning conditions covering the garage.

Questions from Gillingham customers

How much is a large or oversized sectional door?

Large doors are priced on survey because size and structure vary so much. As a guide they start from £4,495 supplied and fitted.

Can you fit a sectional door to a motorhome garage?

Yes, provided the building has the height and structure for the tracks and the door. We measure headroom, side room and depth at survey.

Will Medway Council need to approve my new garage door?

Usually not. Replacing a garage door, including with an electric sectional door, does not normally need planning permission in England unless the house is listed, in a conservation area or Article 4 area, or has planning conditions affecting the garage. If in doubt, ask Medway Council before ordering.
