Tbh, I wanted to avoid digging out thenbuilding a new IC. The 45 degree technicality is worth noting, cheers.

Hi, I'm planning to extend my property (bungalow), the ext will contain an en-suite, therefore need to get the waste away. There is an existing inspection chamber in the garden - however, the angle at which the new drain (green line) will connect contradicts the flow of waste. Is there...

Please don't apologise - I wasn't aware LR provided such info and online too - I've been educated! ...in this scenario how would a neighbour know that there is a restrictive covenant stating 'cannot build within 15 feet of the boundary' on the property I wish to purchase? If they aren't...

Great tip cjard - the registry entry for the neighbouring property states... 'C: Charges Register This register contains any charges and other matters that affect the land. 1 A Transfer of the land in this title dated 22 August 1968 made between (1) xyz Limited and (2) Jo Bloggs and Jane...

Neighbour to one side has extended (with living accommodation not a garage) to within 3 feet of the boundary of the property I wish to purchase. Either they didn't have the same restrictive covenant, they ignored a similar restrictive covenant or reached an 'agreement' with the persons entitled...

:lol:

Sifting through the title deeds of a property I'd like to buy, of note is a restrictive covenant stating 'no building other than a garage shall be erected within 15 feet of a dwelling on an adjacent plot'. Presuming the purchase completes, I plan to extend the property along one side (subject...

Yes, I am proposing the same. Simply genuinely surprised that the authorities allow a structure of this significance to be erected so close to a boundary, without any planning consent. Assuming sale completes, I will be taking advantage of the PD rules, which will save at least 8 weeks of...

Yes the ridge will be less than 4m, it's a very shallow pitch on the existing roof (which my diagrams don't reflect). What surprises me is that a neighbour can erect such a sizeable structure so close to the boundary, without PP - I would be seriously miffed if my current neighbours did this!!!

[/url] Nothing planned at the back, strictly projecting out to the side only. Hoping for something like this - if i understand the constraints correctly, the proposed ext will fall within permitted dev?

Yes it's the original garage, property has never been altered (built early sixties). Would like to project 4.3m with the side ext, and running the depth of the bungalow (10m), giving 40sq metres of living area - with a pitched roof at 90 degrees (ridge of which will be no higher than existing...

...looks like this from the front/road: [/img]

Recently had an offer accepted on a bungalow and assuming sale completes, I would like to erect a 'side extension'. Looking at the planning portal interactive guide, one of the constraints for permitted development of a side extension is that it's width can be 'up to half the width of the...

The site is currently tarmac'd, which is useful (nobody likes working in ankle deep mud for weeks - been there, hated that) and minimises oversite spoil. No, a lorry won't be able to access the trench from all sides - however, from previous experience the concrete spewed out at delivery is...

My mate Vlad tipped me off that the south west of england is the next port of call for our money laundering compatriates - so expect to see property prices double and mega yachts off the coast at lyme regis and exmouth some time soon. :lol:

I did an extension on a building notice a year ago - for the pitched (and hipped) roof structure I called two local truss suppliers for price comparison, they sent a guy out to survey the site and measure up, discuss requirements re soffit depth etc. The supplier provides a detailed plan...

I used cavity closers on a self build project a year or so ago. 100mm cavity, a 2400 length cost around 12 quid. Simply trim it to size then friction fit the closer. I used a few galvanized clout nails to further secure the closer (medium density blocks). I guess a bead of silicone could also...
