    Neighbours extension and soak away drainage system

    Just and update on whats happening now, thought it might be interesting to some! we wrote our concerns to the planners, even though most issues were for building regs not planning, and we heard the neighbours got told off for not filling in form correctly as there is a hedge and fence to be...

    Neighbours extension and soak away drainage system

    On the plans it looks like its a straight wall at the side and then roof sope forward so not slope at sides, if that makes sense (!) so wonder if this means they wont have guttering on the side, however this doesnt explain where the downpipe is going. The plans dont have any measurements on so...

    Neighbours extension and soak away drainage system

    I think the pit will be out the way but not sure what happens with pipe until it gets to the pit. Not really sure how it all works just that all other extensions down the road have avoided the boundary and I assumed this was because of drainage system an how it works.

    Neighbours extension and soak away drainage system

    It won't effect light or privacy etc. it's more concern about crossing the boundaries and damage that might be caused. Also main thing is the soak away, does that need the space at the side where the drainage Pipe goes? Is that a planning issue? Who does look at proximity to others propery etc...

The issue we have is that they want to go up yo their boundary but we have a soak away drain system at the back. All other extension on our road ( including ours, done before we...

    Want to find out more deatiled plans of house

    i have photos of the garden from when we moved in (ten years ago) showing crazy paving type wall (not really sure how to describe it!) which was down, what I classed as the middle. we both had a built up flower bed and we removed the three sides of ours and left the one down the middle which...

    Want to find out more deatiled plans of house

    Thanks for all the replies. I have got the land registry outline but i was looking for something more accurate. Issues have cropped up on and off for ten years and everytime we try and sort it we hit a brick wall. We have no fences between our gardens so you need to have good will with...

    Want to find out more deatiled plans of house

    Its mainly boundaries that we are interested in finding out a bit more about. We want to know where our boundary with a nieghbour lies. We have all the stuff from when we bought the house and I had a feeling that the website I found would just show the same.

    Gutter cleaning tool

    After recovering from my blonde moment I realised, as the window goes upto the facia, I could reach the gutter from leaning out the window! What a wally wombat! We managed to get the moss out. In the Summer we will get the ladder out to give it a final good clean then, 'Hello Hedgehog'! thanks...

    Gutter cleaning tool

    I have seen these for our karcher washer, but doesnt it just splatter it everywhere?? We dont speak to our nieghbours and, eventhough it would be hilarous to see, im not sure they would like muck blasted onto their clean windows!! ( i could do it late at night or when they are out to have a...

    Gutter cleaning tool

    Its annoying as its only the fron of the house as we can reach all other areas. It will probably take us longer to put up the tower than clean it! Its embarrassing that our 76 year old neighbour usually will go up for us, we thought we should find an alternative! Maybe a 'beat your fear of...

    We have moss in the gutter but I wont go up a ladder and neither will my husband! We have asked the window cleaner (who cleans gutters) but he doesnt want to do it either! (We have big windows with no wall, go upto soffit, so hard to get ladder to sit safely I suppose!) Do you know of any...
