Patios Inglewood: Design, Permits and Build
Inglewood is an established suburb, so a new patio usually has to tie in neatly with an existing roofline and the look of the home.

We build skillion patios, gable patios, flat roof patios, pergolas, gazebos and carports. Call 0420 361 450 for a free quote.
City of Stirling
In Western Australia, most patios, pergolas, carports and similar structures need a building permit before work starts. In Inglewood, applications go to the City of Stirling. Your design also has to meet the planning rules for your lot, such as boundary setbacks and open space, and some structures need extra approvals, so it pays to check early.
My Patio designs and builds your new gable patio, skillion patio, flat roof patio, carport, pergola or gazebo, and prepares the drawings and documents for your City of Stirling building application.

Building a patio in Inglewood: what the City of Stirling requires
Building permit: not needed only if the patio is freestanding, no more than 10 m² and no more than 2.4 m high.
Planning approval: not needed if the patio is no more than 2.7 m high and 10 m long, the roof or gutter is at least 450 mm from the boundary, the street setback meets the minimum for the zoning, and enough open space and uncovered outdoor living area remain. For R20 and R25 that is 50% open space and 20 m² outdoor living area.
Heritage areas: every patio in the Heritage Protection Area (Mount Lawley, Menora and Inglewood) or on a heritage-listed property needs development approval.
Council boundary: part of Inglewood falls under a neighbouring council, so we confirm which council covers your address before we prepare your application.
Heritage: Inglewood is in the City of Stirling’s Heritage Protection Area, so a patio here needs development approval whatever its size.
