*There is more to this story, much more, a bit of jiggerypokey maybe* Sadly, there usually is. hope you get it sorted. :)

i would just do it personally,but keep to the planning guidelines for permitted development, if you do extend, you will need building regs even then, i would favour doing it under building notice though, it will save you time and money and you can change the specification "On the Fly" should...

yes its 4 years. but make sure whatever you do is done properly and to current building regs, it is less likeley to cause problems later on WHEN they get wind of it! i dont think than if a house is uninhabited that it ceases to be a house even if it is uninhabitable for a long time but i will...

this may or may not be useful to you, i know this is only ONE councils document but there may be some useful information in it especially page 2 . http://www.elmbridge.gov.uk/documents/detail.htm?pk_document=8396 there is also a link on it to the EA website who are responsible for groundwater...

well from that i would say he's certainly not loosing any money, to fit a kitchen supplied by you i would charge around £1000.00 to supply and fit a set of french doors (including the building work required to make and make good the opening under an existing lintel) i would charge between...

are you supplying the kitchen or is it included in that £6700? are the doors to be supplied by the builder going to be upvc or timber? have they quoted to supply you with a separate ceiling suspended below the old one or just to board over the old? does the kitchen fit include tiling also...

if there is already power and drainage in the garage then the answer is quite simply no. however, if you need to install electrical outlets and drains then you will need the electrics installed by an electrician WITH part P qualifications OR BS2391 certificate. as for draniage, its up to you...

firstly, from a planning point of view, you cannot do anything that has a "Physical" imact on anothers property without their consent so weather it has been there for 12 years or five minutes it makes no difference, an aggreement for provision of drainiage would have to be reached between the...

What he said.. :)
