Sevenoaks District Council is the local planning authority. A large proportion of the district is designated Green Belt, and parts fall within the Kent Downs National Landscape, both of which place additional constraints on new structures and extensions beyond normal permitted development limits.

FAQs
Microcement in Sevenoaks: FAQs
Do you provide microcement across all of Sevenoaks?
Yes, we cover the TN13 postcode area in full, including Riverhead, Dunton Green, Weald, Bat & Ball, Kippington.
Is microcement suitable for a shower floor?
Yes, provided the substrate is tanked beneath it in the same way as for tiling, and a wet-area-rated sealed topcoat is used. It's a popular seamless alternative to tiling in wet rooms.
Does microcement crack?
Microcement itself is flexible and resists surface cracking, but it will reflect movement in an unstable substrate beneath it, which is why substrate assessment and preparation matters before application starts.
Does Green Belt designation affect extending a house in Sevenoaks?
Green Belt policy applies primarily to new buildings and significant additions that would be disproportionate to the original dwelling, rather than ruling out modest extensions. We assess this against your specific property and its planning history.
