I presume you mean it expired 2009? :wink: As far as I know you would have to re-apply, but you've already got the dwg's etc + therefore really only have to fill the forms out + pay the £150? Or does it fall under permitted development (thereby not requiring planning approval)? Have...

DevilDamo I know what the slides show as I'm looking at them, altho appreciate the description. :wink: My point was if you're saying I should read the text + pics together.........how does that confirm that a full width rear extension is allowable? The point is, as jeds reminds us...

This is proving useful DevilDamo As u say the slide doesn't specifically say you can or can't have a full width rear extension. When you say the pic AND the text need to be read in conjunction with each other.........I may be being a bit thick but, which pic + text are u referring to...

DevilDamo Sounds like crossed wires here....... the original poster was asking about full width on a rear extension....... and I wrote "you should hopefully get planning approval on a full width lower storey + 1/2 width second storey extension.......to the rear and ltd to 3m" therefore...

DevilDamo Let's be clear on this, I'm not trying to clarify the situation on SIDE extensions......correct me if I'm wrong, the original poster bigpkr questioned a REAR extension proposal. I'm not sure how this SIDE extension confusion began, I know I didn't start it anyway. I'm trying...

Jeds With due respect mate, I think I know the difference between a side + a rear extension. I tend to use something similar to these guides: http://www.planningportal.gov.uk/uploads/miniguides/extensions/extensions.html According to that it doesn't look like a full width rear extension...

Jeds Are you sure a full width (from neighbours boundary to other side of a property) extension is allowable under permitted development? Forget the 2 storey element here....... I was under the impression that permitted development only allowed a rear extension if it's 1/2 the width of the...

bigpkr if you've got the scenario you've drawn (and bearing in mind a few assumptions) you should hopefully get planning approval on a full width lower storey + 1/2 width second storey extension.......to the rear and ltd to 3m. As nobody else has a rear extension, this won't exclude your...

It sounds v reasonable, (bearing in mind I havn't looked at the site etc) it'd be charging something in that region also. Good luck mate :wink:

Yes JohnD it was the translucent mica plate. Took it to a local repair shop, he cleaned the 'element' that emits the microwaves + cut another plate for me + slotted it in.......as good as new + all done for a fairly reasonable £20. Repair guy said try to keep it clean in the future +...

Afternoon all I have a 3 yr old Panasonic microwave virtually identical to: http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/4260657/Trail/searchtext%3EMICROWAVE.htm Problem is, some of the times I use the microwave I get a small fire/overheating problem in it. Inside the mocrowave...

An update on the situation...... The tree doesn't have a TPO on it + it's not in a Conservation Area. The tree has now been cut back, with the neighbour/owners consent, by a Tree Surgoen. We've been told by the Tree Surgeon that it's a eucalyptus tree. Questions are now: - If we go...

No offence mate but :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: My 1st question is, how can somebody have the funds in place to buy land + then build a house from scratch BUT not have a comparitively small sum for professional fees? The cost of an architect / technician is what 3-4% of the eventual...

In the case of a semi-detached, you would normally be allowed 3m for a rear extension. If you have a large garden space, it may be worth exploring all the various design solutions to get the ideal space for yourselves. I work as an architect here in Yorkshire, if you do need somebody to...

Why? if you change the appearance of the building externally it'll generally require planning permission. Is this dormer on the front of the house or rear facing? If it's on the front the Planning Dept. will be alot more concerned about it's appearance. In my neck o the woods they don't like...

I wouldn't have thought so, it's a structure on YOUR property with YOUR permission. As it's your property, I would've thought it's your responsibility to make the necessary enquiries with the local authority. You could ask a builder to build an office for you, once it's built you find out you...

To my limited + humble knowledge........... Agree the electrical work will be have to approved Part P + notifiable. New plumbing? are we talking above or below ground? New bathroom maybe notifiable even if it's a straight swap (they say it is where I am!!). New floor joists would require...

Don't want to sound like an *** or something but........ I presume you have Planning permission, or it's within PD allowances? I presume you have Bldg Regs approval, or are you doing it via a Building Notice? If the conditions above apply then you will have an Inspector wanting to check the...

Don't know if it's of any help........ I've got a Vaillant 828 TuboMAX, had a problem with the timer clock. Ordered a new one, switched boiler off, pulled the old clock off, pushed the new clock in, switched the boiler back on + all ok.....took about 2 minutes. It's been 1/2 weeks now and all...

Not sure what the legal position........but in my humble opinion I doubt a recessed box can be fitted into a single skin wall (102.5mm thickness) UNLESS there's an additional housing box on the inner side of the box location. A standard recessed box sits into a cavity wall (usually 300mm...
