What is a site plan?
A site plan is a large scale drawing that shows the location and context for proposed work. They are one of the planning drawings that may be required to obtain planning permission for a home renovation project.
Maps for planning applications are presented as an aerial view of the building site, are typically drawn to scale 1:100, 1:200, or 1:500.
These plans show the proposed work in relation to the surroundings to ensure it does not affect the area, such as other houses, roads, paths, trees, parking etc.
They outline the building plot on maps, showing the boundary lines of the property in relation to others around it. This ensures the building work is considering the surrounding area and is able to move forward.
You usually need a site plan if you want to build a single or double storey extension, garage conversion, or front porch extension to your house in England or Wales.
It will be required during the application process for planning permission in which you'll need to submit a set of drawings, along with any supporting evidence and documentation as part of an application via the government planning portal website.
You may be wondering, 'how do I get a site plan of my house?' Site plans are usually drawn up by an architect, or architectural technician here in the UK.

There are countless companies where you can buy a site plan, like Buy A Plan, eMap Site, and Get Mapping. The planning portal also have their own site map service called Request A Plan,. but none of their block plans will be accepted by our council, as they need to show you property and proposal.
