Regular maintenance and 'like for like' repairs do not need listed building consent but it would be required if the repairs include removal of historic material or changes to its character.  For example, internal alterations that include removal of historic doors, fireplaces or plasterwork or replacement of external doors or windows would require consent.  Internal redecoration, installing new bathroom or kitchen fittings would not normally need consent.  External painting may require consent as it may affect the character of the Listed Building and there are additional controls relating to external decoration of properties in Windsor Town Centre.

Advice on maintenance and repairs is available from the Council and it is recommended that you contact us if you are unsure whether you need permission, for advice on appropriate repair methods or for more advice on the types of work that require listed building consent.
