Am I right in assuming that if new extensions to an existing residential building are less than 100sq.m then there is no CIL obligation? If one was to also have a garden annex which would take the total new build area over 100sq.m that that would not be liable for CIL ether, as it is an Annex? Thirdly, from what I am reading lofts cannot be included in existing GIA if there is no fixed ladder or stair? This is for Hounslow Borough.

Hi,

The same CIL rules should apply anywhere. 

I have always included lofts if they can be used for storage etc. 

If the new build on an existing dwelling is over 100 sq m, you must claim the exemption.

In any event, complete Form 1 

See our flowchart at https://www.planninggeek.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/CIL-Flowchart-2025.pdf and the CIL FAQ page at https://www.planninggeek.co.uk/planning/cil/cil-faq/ for more information.
