Installing a Satellite Dish on Your Flat
Before fitting a satellite dish to your flat or maisonette, be aware that you might need to seek planning permission in specific situations.
As a leaseholder, you'll likely require approval from your landlord, the property's freeholder, or the management company before proceeding with any installation.
If your flat holds listed building status, you absolutely must secure listed building consent. It's crucial to consult your local planning authority for guidance *before* you commence any work. Carrying out alterations to a listed building that impact its distinct historic character without the necessary consent constitutes a criminal offence.
