Hey guys.
I'm looking for a little bit of advice if you don't mind, I realise it's probably a big can of worms, but i want to check before i do, or dont, drop myself in any brown stuff.
I'm about to knock down my carport that the previous owner built, well, tried to build.
I want the biggest garage i can get, and after some research, it will be 10 x 3m, to keep it within the 30m2, no permission needed.
Here's the but...
I've now realised that my plans to build it off the existing garden wall are no good, as not much is holding it up!
So I would like to get rid of this wall, and go fully timber frame. But the problem is with the 'non-combustible material' part of the regs.
So what i've thought of today, is would making this wall fire proof be sufficient? i.e, plasterboarded inside, and rendered or supalux on the outside?
I hope this all makes sense
Thanks in advacne!
