you are misjudged confidence for arrogance....and to judge me in such a way over a forum, when you don't know me is extremely un-professional. everyone is learning all the time and i never pretend to know everything....I've just dealt with a lot of permitted developments and know how they...

my point exactly....done and dusted and no harm done 8)

oh please.....lets concentrate on the subject... i wasn't aware it was a breach of any forum rules....its removed now, so lets just move on, forget about it and not blow it out of proportion...and i apologize for the error.... But if replying to multiple threads which are giving out incorrect...

I'm not spamming....trying to help... its my job...i fully understand the rules...by what reasoning do you believe i don't exactly?

Thats exactly right....as i said, a good architect will advise the best solution, etc. But all things which fall under the heading of permitted development, be it class A or B require a certificate of lawfulness....these developments are usually extensions and the like....internal alterations...

Apply for a certificate of lawfulness....cover yourself, don't run the risk of it being wrong and have an enforcement officer round.... ALWAYS COVER YOURSELF Paul

bad advise....never just start a development without all the necessary paperwork in order and cover yourself. Otherwise it may well lead to legal costs and enforcement officers visiting your property, which just isn't worth the hassle. Getting your paperwork and drawings in order is the most...

Certificate of lawfulness application is £75 and takes 6-8 weeks for a decision just thought i would clear that up :D paul

hi...well it depends on which way the floor joists will be running. You need to clarify with a strutural engineer or your local building regs, but a span 5000mm (18ft) would require 220 x 75mm C16 timber joists, fixed 400mm apart. However if the span is the other way then 2400mm (8ft) would...

thanks woody, yes you are are right.....but it is still alot of money for a single storey extension, also 50k is alot for the build costs. What size the the extension, just out of interest? I carried out a 20msq extension for a family with a bungalow for a build cost of approx 25k. My fee's were...

Hi...i've been reading your post and In short they are ripping you off. For a single storey extension the price is way over the top. I run an architectural design service and would be happy to provide you with a quote for carrying out the works, including overseeing the works for you. I have...
