I had a similar issue, put a window into a room on 3rd floor landing of loft conversion, its 600mm x 600mm and double glazed, passed with no questions with BC. On paper it should be fire resistant, a fire resistant pane with wire mesh would have cost me £33 only. Yours may be different, if it s...

Yes should do, i had my plans done and they were sent to me all in one go with joist, beam, timber specs/sizes, etc. However my plan was never followed to the book by the builder and the end product is different, still passed building regs.

You need more details, like joist locations and sizes and UB sizes/locations, basically the plans need to be done to building reg spec.

Need some advice. Had the CU upgraded to 17th edition as part of loft conversion, all been signed off and BC cert has arrived. Have a question on power sockets, the sockets are all under 32A MCB'S, i just noticed it now, is this ok? I though its normally 16A/20A MCB'S?

Insulation tape??

I had the same problem, in the end we went close and sealed around, Bottom line they cannot access their tiles now.

My build reg completion cert has just come through for my dormer conversion, 8 weeks of toil from silly builders and finally its done.

All, Need some advice on loft eaves storage, does it need to be ventilated, if not will i get mold??

My opinion is you can find your own material, as long as it is 100mm+ and fulfills the thermal requirements. My loft spec specifies celetex, but builder put in IKOTHERM, cheaper in price but same performance. Also plans say 150mm insulation on rafters, builder but in 110mm due to size of...

Need to bounce this off many people. Had loff conversion done with eaves storage with 2 small cupboard doors, does this need to be ventilated as worried that during winter it will be full of condensation if i pack in more insulation to seal any draughts. The sloping roof over storage has a...

Blood suckers.

BC in my opinion is a waste of time in London, its not like people are bothered about selling a house without the paperwork. There is high demand and the buyer has not even bothered to ask whether it has a BC cert as they know the house will be snapped up by someone else. On many occasions i...

My builder looked at my loft drawings and did not stick to beam size or location of them, took measurements, ordered them and put them in, BCO came out looked and said nothing, onto next stage after that. In fact my drawings have been compromised a lot.

The ability to take backhanders from builders/clients.

Not rocket science. I had a plan drawn up with BC spec for dormer loft conversion and submitted, however during the build the builder deviated on many things and no revised plan was submitted, BC officer has already done 2 inspections and the last one will be in 2 weeks when complete. A...
