Afternoon everyone
As part of my renovations, I am looking to install a window on the 2nd floor at back of the house (probably static - 1.5m high x 800mm - 1m width). It's where an old immersion boiler used to sit, and I want to open that up to get light in the upstairs hallway.
I think I have cavity walling.
A couple of questions-
Do I need to inform the council I am looking to do this?
Am I able to do this, or are there regulations that I need to employ a qualified tradesman?
Any gotchas I should think about?
Thankyou in advance[/list]
