Morning Jonathan. I think people use permitted developement rights, because our planning system is run by poor quality planning officers. If you want a chat let me know. I think i might have a decent storey . Regards Jim

JohnD. You have a legal responsibility for anything on your land. If your trampoline blows over the fence, and kills the kid next door. YOUR FAULT. If your tree blows over and takes our my greenhouse. YOUR FAULT. If your excavations cause my house to fall down. YOUR FAULT. That is why i just...

People have a responsibility to maintain any trees on their property. Take some photos of the path damage, and even though you had the roots ground down, remove some earth from around them, and take some photo's. Send the photo's to you neighbour, together with a letter, and give him 30 days to...

Good luck to you. I bet watching the wildlife is fantastic.

I take you you want to try and stop your plywood base getting wet ? Those cheap blue tarps are a bit rubbish. Ok for a shower, but not for long term. Get yourself a roll of Damp proof membrane from somewhere like screwfix. About £25. and roll it out over your ply. Either staple it down around...

If the cabinets are not fixed to the walls etc, and are moving. Then you are looking at worktops off, after taking the hob, taps etc out. Fixing the cabinets, then re-installing the granite. If you have the granite fixed, but the cabs are not fixed properly, the granite joint will crack again. i...

I have given you the answer then. Badly fitted cabs would be my best guess. If so, that is going to cost you a few bob.

Up at the Parish Council on Wednesday evening. Will they offer support to my application, or not ? I shall keep anybody interested posted.

Your worktops look like granite ??? You have an undermounted sink, and scale around your tap. Your granite worktops can be fixed, and your joint re-done. There are a couple of reasons why this may have happened. Either your granite has been badly fitted to your cabinets, or your granite has been...

This should be interesting. As previously stated, got PP to extend my current bungalow from aprox 600sq ft to 3000sq ft. This is on greenbelt land, and sits just outside the village. I've now gone back in for PP to basically split this large house into 2, and instead of building one large house...

Calara. Write the letter exactly as Woody has said above. Above all, don't worry, enjoy your Christmas, and wait for the council to come back to you. If they do, come back on here, and we will all help you as much as we can. Most of the planning officers i have come across over the years are...

Was that not the one that got torn down recently ?

Well done for giving it a go. You will be an expert on the next one.

Good morning Peeps. Just wanted to let you know that i have managed to get permission to extend my 600 square foot bungalow to 3000 square foot. The steps i took were putting in for an 8m deep rear extension across the whole back of the property, using the neighbourhood consultation scheme. Got...

Good evening Ladies and gents. I have a bungalow. It will be considerably extended using N.C.S, and Permitted Dev. In the new upstairs i will be putting some bedrooms. I don't want to put in any dormers, but will be putting in Velux os similar windows. The view is not great, and i don't want to...

Yes i do mean that Nakajo. But don't go there. you have now made me feel a year older.

Thats right Wessex. A rear extension, and a rear extension to my side extension. I could do the same on the other side. Not bad considering i live in Green belt, and i can turn my bungalow from about 650sq ft to about 3000. All done as an exercise really, to give me some ammo for my proper...

Who thinks that the current NCS will be extended beyond May 2018 ? Has anybody on here heard any wispers ?

It was quite simple really. I put in the first one for an 8mt deep extension, across the whole rear of my bungalow. a few days later, i put in a second application for a rear extension to my 1/2 width side extension which will be done under pd, and stated that the new rear side extension was not...

Just thought i would let you all know that my Two 8mt deep NCS rear extensions went though the local council. Thanks for all your comments folks. I didn't state an 11mm gap between in the end, i just said that the rear extension would not touch the rear side extension. So in effect i can leave a...
