Can I level my garden without planning permission? If you're planning on levelling your garden, you may be wondering if you need planning permission. The answer is, it depends on how much you plan to change the ground level.


If you're only planning on making minor changes to the ground level, such as removing a small amount of soil, you likely won't need planning permission. However, if you plan on significant changes to the ground level, such as building retaining walls or creating a raised garden bed, you may need to obtain planning permission.


It's always a good idea to check with your local authority before making any significant changes to your garden. They can advise you on whether you need planning permission and guide you through the application process if necessary.


In summary, if you're planning on levelling your garden, always check with your local authority to see if you need planning permission. It's better to be safe than sorry and avoid any potential legal issues down the line.
