Planning in Rotherham
Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council is the planning authority. Most decking needs no planning application if it is no more than 30 cm above the ground.
Raised decks, verandas, listed buildings and conservation areas need more care. Check your property before you order.
Valleys and level plots
Rotherham mixes level estates with sloping streets along the Don and Rother valleys. Level gardens keep costs down; on a slope, the deck frame does the levelling.
Shady, damp corners suit composite boards, which resist the green algae that makes timber slippery.
