There are exceptions however, for example if your DIY garden shed covers more surface area than half of your garden, which is not for domestic use and if your garden shed is more than 3 meters high with a flat roof or more than 4 meters high with an apex roof.
Also another thing to consider is this, if your garden shed is as close as 2 meters to a boundary and over 2.5 meters high then once again planning permission should be applied for. Planning permission can be confusing but it is important to know the basics as to when you should need it. If your garden shed is going to be over 2.5 meters high and it is closer to a public highway than your home you may need planning permission. By public highway I mean things like a road or footpath with a public right of way. If you live in a Conservation Area or a Listed Building permission may be required for any shed over 10 cubic metres. This brief summary is not intended to be a comprehensive guide.
