    Neighbour's lean-to fixed to my wall causing damp

    That sounds logical to me but the way I've interpreted the party wall information is that the wall of a building built along a boundary (but not across it), whilst being on Person A's land entirely, also becomes a structure of significance for Person B as it forms their boundary too. I'm not...

    Neighbour's lean-to fixed to my wall causing damp

    Thanks Woody. For what reason do you say my garage wall is unlikely to be a party wall?

    Neighbour's lean-to fixed to my wall causing damp

    Thanks Geoff. I would say that the wall of our garage is a party wall. Therefore, should the neighbour have issued a party wall notice notice before affixing a lean-to to it? We purchased the property last month and the lean-to has been in place for several years and no notice was issued to...

    Neighbour's lean-to fixed to my wall causing damp

    Hi all, trying to establish what my rights are here... Neighbour has a block built garage set back from the shared boundary by 2m. I have a brick built garage adjoining the boundary line. The neighbour has then built a lean-to shed between his garage and mine, the roof of which is fully...

    Suspended timber floor opinions...

    I am planning on putting a suspended timber floor over the old brick/stone floor of our garage as part of the conversion to annexed accommodation. The voids between joists will be insulated and I'll likely chipboard on top and then lay carpet in the bedroom and engineered wood planks elsewhere...

    Permission for front garden wall

    I know!... but reading the rules regarding the wall I can't see anything restricting the addition of railings or indeed a hedge on the property side of the wall.

    Permission for front garden wall

    Blimey that was quick, many thanks! And the fact the wall will run alongside a road is not an issue? As an extension to this 1m wall, am I able to have Victorian metal railings mounted on top of the 1m wall this raising the level of barrier?

    Permission for front garden wall

    Hi all, just a quick one. Am I correct in thinking that I do not need permissionto construct a garden wall with a height less than 1m along the front perimeter of my property which runs alongside a pavement and road? My understanding is that sub-1m no PP is required is that right? Is that...

    Can you do a half open loft-conversion to create a mezzanine?

    Hi all, This may seem like a silly question but I wanted to check before I start pestering the architect with yet another stupid idea! We have ruled out a full loft conversion because there is only 2.3m from the top of first floor ceiling joists to the bottom of the ridge and quite frankly we...
