Alterations to your home

If you're thinking about making changes to your home, have a read through our Alterations Booklet, which outlines everything you need to know before requesting any changes.

Once you've had a look through, please fill in our Alterations Request form below. Our Alterations team will then review your request and you'll be assigned a case manager who'll act as your point of contact at Plus Dane.

We will always aim to provide a decision in writing within 28 days of receiving your request.

  1. You must be given permission before carrying out improvements or alterations.
  2. Following this procedure will keep you safe and will stop you causing accidental damage to your home
  3. Please complete the form below and add any attachments
  4. We will assess your application but you will not be granted permission until all the necessary documents and information are provided as outlined in the policy.
  5. If your proposal is accepted, you will receive an approval letter.
  6. If the work is significant, it will be inspected by a Plus Dane Housing surveyor when it has been finished, to make sure the works have been carried out to a satisfactory standard.
  7. Any changes to the property’s electrical or gas supply must be certified and you must show this documentation to our surveyor.
  8. If we see fit to reject your application we will write to you explaining the reasons for our decision.
  9. We will normally reject an application if the proposals are dangerous, do not comply with regulations, or are likely to cause a nuisance to other customers.

Alterations Requests

Please enter your address, including postcode

Please note; it is important that this page is filled out to the best of your ability to avoid delays in processing the application. Proposals will not be approved without the relevant surveys, plans and health & safety information being provided.

Neighbours’ Consent

  • You are required to seek permission from your neighbours if the work you are planning to carry out will affect them or the structural integrity of their property in any way.
  • We will let you know if you need consent from your neighbour.
  • If your neighbour refuses to agree, it is your responsibility to resolve the dispute before any works can be approved (e.g. Party Wall Agreement).
