What type of drill and drill bit (and quality) are you using? It will be a steel or concrete lintel. What is the wall construction?

You don't normally have a lead flashing on a door, however you do normally have a projecting cill that overhangs the upstand (which you don't have), then some sealant is used to seal the junction underneath between the cill and the upstand. The roof should be falling away from the door to...

Is this just for air tightness or fire too? I don't think you'll find something designed specifically for that task so getting one with a BBA cert seems unlikely IMO. Perhaps something like...

Was it a joinery company or a timber window company?

That roof looks older than me, its fine.

I used to use manure instead of bark.

Haha, I'm gonna leave that unedited for the sake of hilarity! :ROFLMAO: But you still haven't answered the question.

A non material amendment would be the submission of the scheme B elevations and a justification that the wider dormer/hip to gable would be PD anyway. But planners can be obnoxious idiots so there is that, there is also no definition of what is non-material amendment and what isn't.

Effectively what you're doing is a hip to gable conversion which itself would be PD. So it begs the question how do you sleep at night? If you're of a nervous imposition then you could consider putting in a non-material amendment application. The problems can arise because planners can be...

So is the only difference between what you have planning for (lets call that scheme A) and what your architect says you can build (scheme B) only that the dormer is wider in scheme B? If so it begs the question why you didn't shown the dormer wider for the planning app. Assuming the above is...

Sleepers will always rot and are never a long term solution but would be the cheapest fix for now.

Rubbish advice.

Give them buzz and (assuming someone is prepared to talk to you) you can ask them to clarify, your solicitor is probably clueless.

It looks to me like the mirror is embedded in a framed metal door, presumably it's glued in with something or other, in which case I would have though you could remove the mirror form the frame and replace it. But as above better pics are needed.

Who owns the wall on the left? Will the door be the full width or are you expecting to have a slither of masonry each side?

Sure but why give yourself the hassle when an extended warranty will achieve similar without the pain. You can still fall back on the CRA. You couldn't pay me to buy from Currys (again).

You're forgiven. :)
