Planning in Chesterfield
Chesterfield Borough Council is the planning authority. Most decking needs no planning application if it is no more than 30 cm above the ground and, with other extensions and buildings, covers no more than half the garden.
Raised decks, verandas, listed buildings and conservation areas need more care. Check your property before you order.
Hills and clay
Many Chesterfield gardens slope, and some sit on heavy clay that holds water. A frame on adjustable supports or posts keeps the deck level and lifted clear of wet ground.
On clay, ask the installer how they will deal with drainage under the deck, so water does not pool beneath the frame.
