Hi all, when we moved into our house it had a bizarre sunroom/conservatory off one of the bedrooms, which I'd like to remove. It's a fairly simple 'strap-on' affair which hasn't interfered with gutters etc, so fairly easily removed.
Obviously there's been an external door fitted where it would have previously just been wall. I want to remove this door and just brick up the 'hole', obviously making good the brick and timberframe construction of the house (a bungalow by the way, circa 2002).
So the question is, am I okay doing this and just getting a solicitor to update paperwork for when my kids have to eventually move me out LOL, or does this sort of thing need any kind of building certification (sorry for poor terminology!!). Comfortable it won't need planning permission I think?
Now the main question, I can do this sort of thing myself, but is there an issue with me doing this in terms of proof of competence etc., which I guess links into the 'does this need signed off' building certification and the like question above? No I'm not a trained tradesperson, but a keen diy'er, so I can do things, it just takes me much longer than the pros!!
Many thanks in advance for any thoughts, very much appreciated!!
