I know i should have started the thread once i had the keys and could take some decent picture, but I'm to excited and buzzing with ideas. The House is built on s steep hill, and the carport is dug out quite deep. When standing in the carport the roof is about 3 metres, so i was hoping to...

I'm sorry my last message made no sense im on my phone. The message should say the same height as neighbours. I'll post some images later.

I'm sorry I'm not in yet I will get some on when I move in. The roof will only be at ground level the same night as neighbours gardens. The like below is a PDF from the...

Thank you so far. Well what I want to do is knock down the lean to at the back of a terraced hhouse then extend to the side to meet the boundary wall and have bi-fold doors at the rear. As well as this the garden is on two levels. With what a can only describe as a dug out car port although...

Thank you so even if you have removed original items they will still count and will not be able to add the space saved to a new development?

I don't know where to start. Can you speak to a planner first to see what the likelihood of getting permission is? how much does the whole process cost?

I understand that amongst other things if the development need to be less the 50% of the original outside space. If i was to knock down the original outside toilet and coal shed, could i add this space recovered to the extension? Also the outside toilet is a lean to at the back of the house...

I'm in the process i buying a new home which has had a recent boiler change. The original is in the kitchen and the new directly above it on the first floor which i assume has been tapped into the same flue. Can i but a log burner in where the old boiler was and use the same flue as the...

I'm moving to a new home that has a window that opens 2 ways on the second floor. Wide open than you twist the handle up and just the top tilts in to the room. This window with a toddler around makes me very nervous. Is there anyway of locking the mechanism so it will only tilt and not open...

I've just read something interesting that decking as long as its below 30cm above ground level and below 50% of the original outside space no planning is need. Its also goes on to say that they define the height on the highest point in the garden if the levels are not uniformed. This should...

Thank you both that's put a spanner in the works. What if it was a flat roofed garage with a strong roof, rather than a car port? Would this still be classed as balcony/verandah/deck?

Right i did not know this. There is one there already with a plastic roof. I wanted to replace the joists with ones strong enough to hold people. Will this still need planning? I was under the assumption garages etc.. do not need planning anymore provided you meet certain criteria such as only...

Hello everyone i'm new here. I've just bought my first house and this will be the first of many questions! The garden is on 2 levels with no usable space for the kids to use. There is a patch of about 2 metres which is level with the house then steps down approx 3 metres down to a car port...
