It may never happen and if your happy to take the risk go for it. I would for the sake of all the mess now in stripping off just do it. I did it just last year myself it was my daughters room and didn't want to take any risks, plus with the law of sod it only happens when you least need it!

For the sake of noise if you can afford it then go for a slab. Off topic a little. I can assure you if you can put in UFH you will not regret it! I was sceptical, my only regret now is that I did not put it in upstairs. The simple solution to no heat instantly if you have for example turned...

Ok what sort of heights do you have? how will you access the sump> will it be under and thus require access to pump etc or will you have some way of accessing it? Can you do a little diagram of the area and the sizes (aprox) As for a frame if you are putting in ply then that could be the...

Build up the fibreglass, how do you intend to create the sump or are you using a pre made unit? You could practise it in fibreglass before you do it in situ to?

Woody gets charged per keyboard stroke :) The paste will fail on the paper and so will the dot n dab as woody says. It will then all come crashing down well maybe not crashing but you never know.

Seems plausible but why not use fibreglass for the sump at least then if it does crack/break you can repair it. I have seen one where they made it out of that thick non slip flooring as used in hospitals kind of like lino but they can hot seal the edges to prevent leaks.

If you are putting a slab floor upstairs why not underfloor heating as well its prime floor for that? Using a slab makes it in my mind harder for services but if you are designing from scratch you can overcome that.

The fireplace you want it to look like seems to be non supporting (as in its only a face) If you want to remove the arch I would think it will need some sort of lintel above (maybe your oak) but then you will need to set the down legs in to. I saw a program once where they did it but knocked...

Pretty complex stuff this, I was told that if you used a full fill of board it would cause damp for sure but as you say stuff is available but it looks a bit more complex than just simple boards. http://cavitytherm.com/accessories/ Go ahead and trial it with the two - let us know the outcome.

All looks great, good job!!! I love the views - I too have similar ones of the Snowdon range.

Rigid needs an air gap, the batts are normally full fill.

Clean water from a tap point and also a disposal point for waste - this will be decided by the caravan club As for change of land use I don't think its classed as most of the time the field is still a field and no real alterations take place for a CS. Vehicle parking - well they park next to...

Yep I am not saying it will be definitive but a pre planning application may sort him out. Can we split Woodys wage :)

I would give planning a call, the email you mentioned said April so hopefully they will be getting things in place with it nearly being April.

1. unless it states not to then any e27 should be compatible - he only time I have known issues with LED is when a dimmer is part of the PIR and the LED buld is not dim compatible. As for wattage anything up to 60 watts. I think I put 4 watt Diall branded bulbs that are very good replacements...

I agree with the passport thing, when someone can make money out of it then it will become a essential thing here but you have to remember most of the population are not shall we say on the bright side so even when you tell them to wipe their nose and where the tissues are they still aren't sure...

My local building control has a sections where you can ask about pre planning so it maybe a good idea to give them a call/email to clarify

Do the plans not cater for drainage? When my plans were drawn up and approved I had to have drain off for surface water which was soakaways.

Keep up the good work!!

A CS site does indeed not require planning, I did once look into this and had the caravan club assessment for a CS but I doubt he would get approved based on the overlooking of you property. It is also good to note that although there is potential for you to be overlooked and maybe some noise...
