What are the differences?

Full plans - basically is an application submitted with construction drawings to the council or approved inspector. They inspect the plans before any works are started. This is the best way and avoids any confusion about the build

Building notice is an application form submitted to the council and you can start works on small scale extensions pretty much immediately. They will inspect the works as it progresses onsite and advise what is required. As no drawings are necessarily provided you will agree details and standards onsite during works
