About Licence to Alter

A shop fit-out, new partition or structural change may need landlord consent under the lease. A licence to alter records the approved work and any conditions, such as reinstatement or supervision. Landlord consent is separate from any planning permission, building regulations approval or other authorisation the work needs.

Key Points

  • Check the lease before starting work.
  • Prepare plans and a clear description of the proposed alterations.
  • Understand reinstatement, insurance and approval conditions.
