Listed Buildings Consent and VAT

vat on listed buildingsIf you live in a listed building,   and you are planning to make any alterations to your windows – such as double glazing,  you will require listed buildings consent. This is not required if you are only renovating the windows.

If your property has windows which are not sash and case, such as PVC or pivot windows, and your property is listed. Your window work should be zero rated for VAT as long as the listed building consent is approved.

There is also a VAT reduction on draughtproofing works to sash and case windows. This is sometimes incorrectly applied to the whole job. The 5% VAT rate applies to the draughtproofing element of the renovation only.

When we supply you with a sash window renovation quotation, it is split into two parts. The renovation part which is standard 20% VAT and the draughtproofing element at 5%.

If you are in any doubt, contact your local planning authority and the HMRC directly.
