Great! Just what I wanted to hear.

Hi, I'm having in roof solar panels fitted on the south east facing roof, but this is where the soil stack vertically vents and would be in the way. Can the soil stack be diverted 45 degrees when it enters the loft space to vent on the other side of the ridge? Wasn't sure whether this was...

Is this particular boiler a re-badged Junkers boiler then?

We have 15 litres per min at the Garden tap and 22 litres at the road meter (according to the water board) I think this is why we had a high output boiler as we need to run the tap/shower at full to make it worthwhile.

Let me rephrase the question - Will an Ideal Logics "Plus" C35 give the comparable CH output as the RD537i? I don't really understand how Combi's work but find some websites quote 24KW CH Output for this boiler and others 35KW..:unsure...

Hi, Can anyone tell me which figure on the attached for my British Gas (WB) RD537i is the central heating output normally used in comparisons? I think it is 37.1KW @ net 80/60 deg. This boiler is 13 years old and other than early day gas valve fault, it's been trouble free and I'm pleased...

Well a lot can happen in 24 hours! Ive learnt a lot in this thread and hope others do as well. The update today is that after i asked the Case officer to send me the previous local plan and policies relating to domestic extensions, as there had been "material" changes in planning policy, he did...

I've just re-read your post #13 Wessex... You are of the opinion that unless the additional information is presented on the original application, you don't have the opportunity at appeal to provide it? That seems harsh.

I didn't say I wasn't going to take it to appeal without additional information; that would be stupid. I assumed as part of the appeal process I could provide that information at that time, rather than now at the planning application phase as they are about to slam the door on me...

The application hasnt been refused yet, but will be on Friday 13th... I have a dilema now as Wessex makes a good point. Ive not provided additional argument to the original application as Case officer only responded on Monday after 7 weeks.. Should I withdraw the app so no decision is made and...

I appreciate my desperation has no bearing, it's the planners opinion i am questioning....

Thanks Woody. I have the extract of the planning policy from the adopted local plan. Would it be naive to assume that as there is no mention of set back in the policy then set back does not form part of the policy? The bit I am struggling with is that I can't find it documented anywhere. Here...

Still confused... Is the Set Back/Set down actual planning law or did this originate into common practice some other way?

Thats the problem, i cant get hold of the previous adopted plan to compare the material changes... I think ill just ask the council for a copy.

Hi Wessex. The boundary gap will be the same as we are building above an existing attached garage. There will be no terracing effect. The build will actually look like several larger houses on the estate from the developers original plan in the 80's; our house was the smallest layout on an...

Hi Woody, is there a piece of planning law that states it is a standard requirement? I couldnt find it... I'm curious about your last point; wouldn't that be problematic if we sold and the approved plans didnt match the actual build.., assuming an enforcement notice didn't happen in the...

Hi, Applied for Planning Permission to LA for an over garage second storey extension on a 3 bed detached property. Planning Officer states that application will be refused as extension is "overly dominant and it would fail to respect the character of the original building, contrary to Policy DE5...

That's helpful Woody. You think it's fine then?

Is the drain she is using for the waste a mains drain, storm drain or combined? If it's a separate rainwater/storm drain then there are likely water bye laws that prohibit discharge of washing machines as they ultimately end up in water courses and rivers causing pollution. Tell her that...

My son attends a children nursery with about 30 other children. I noticed when I dropped him off today that over the weekend in one of the rooms a timber structure had been installed. This was basically a corner of the room with a picket fence to form a separate enclosure with a gate. Again...
