The process from here
Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.
Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.
About prior approval applications
How this application type works
Prior approval applications arise where permitted development rights already grant the principle of the work, such as larger home extensions, changes of use to housing or agricultural buildings. The council may only consider the specific matters set out in the rules, for example transport, flooding or appearance, and in many classes the work may proceed if the council does not respond within the deadline, commonly 56 days.

1F2 110 Comiston Road Edinburgh EH10 5QL
I bought Flat 4 110 Comiston Road on 10th July 2026 and I am notifying you and ask for prior approval that I will reinstate the original wooden sash window design throughout the property and replace the current UPVC windows at the property. The current windows open fully (swing) and are not the original opening method as should be in sash windows. I have a quote from "Edinburgh Sash and Case Company", and have already paid for the initial work of making the windows from scratch. The windows are due to be installed with great care and attention to detail in the middle of September 2026.
