Who else to inform when opening a home salon?

[ajshard]

My home salon is almost ready to advertise, I already do a couple of clients here as they prefered to come to me than me to them, usually I work mobile. I live in a rented house and my landlord has already given permission and I have my insurance sorted. Do I need to get my room inspected by the council? I'm assuming from other threads I need to tell them but am unsure of what department would cover this type of thing, please can anyone advise?

Thanks in advance

Ring your local council and explain the situation they will put you though to the right department. I rang my local council and I didn't need to inform them. But at least I did it. If it's a room just for beauty and you don't use it as spare bedroom or something then you may need planning permission.

Becareful putting a sign outside the house for some reason my council doesn't like and what asked to take it down, needed planning permission.

Hope that helps
