You need 60cm / 2 feet in the ground. Ideally, the hole should be straight-sided and 15cm / 6 inches in diameter. If the ground's not too crumbly or full of rubble, the best way to dig a neat hole is with a post hole digger. Otherwise, a trench or drain spade or a border spade. Having a...

The one on the left is right-handed and the one on the right is left-handed:

Have you considered using a paint pad? Some people love 'em, some hate 'em and you can still get drips if you overload them, but you don't get any spray.

Are you connecting to the spigot on the sink trap? A Jubilee clip worked for me.

Have you got views at the front or back? Do you want an office? Would it be used regularly or rarely? Would it do double duty as a kids room/anything else? Do you prefer open plan or discrete rooms? Where's the entrance to the downstairs loo? Does the wonkiness in the neighbours' extension...

I used these torch-on bitumen sleeves from a local sawmill when I replaced a garden fence in 2017. Not expensive and easy to use and appear to be working so far. https://www.postsaver.com

My local Gibbs and Dandy has a dedicated brick library and I've found the staff there to be uncannily adept at identifying a particular brick from a few decent photographs. Seems like they offer the same service online: https://www.gibbsanddandy.com/bricks

The loft on the current LDC has a higher roof height but doesn't cover the entire roof. The extra bit would take it slightly over the PD allowance. I didn't think this would be contentious to achieve under planning. But the council are adamant about seeing the original roof -- although...

Thanks for the info, woody. It's because of my architects "advice" or lack thereof that I'm here. If the architect had told me the PD part needed to be substantially built or permission would be refused, it would never have been submitted. DOHa and woody have provided more useful and...

Thank you, both of you, for the replies. In the sense that once something's been rejected you can't re-apply for the same or very similar thing? At the moment I've put in a planning application and the planner has said he's likely to reject it so architect has sent in alternatives (which...

Thanks for all the replies. If I let the LPA formally refuse at this stage and take it to appeal, does the Planning Inspector use the same criteria as above or would s/he take into account that part of it could go ahead under PD anyway and just rule on the non-PD bit? If I go ahead and build...

I want to build a loft conversion most of which is permitted development but a part of which requires planning permission. I've got a lawful development certificate for the PD part. Rather than go to the trouble and expense of building it in two stages, I put in a planning application before...

L-shaped semi with a hip to gable, so building over the outrigger adds a few cubic metres.

Thanks for all the replies. Sorry if I've opened a can of worms but the reason I asked is because I thought it probably was a can of worms. The T&C Planning Order says: B.1 Development is not permitted by Class B if— (d)the cubic content of the resulting roof space would exceed the cubic...

Hi, I have a few questions regarding permitted development that I hope someone can help with. (1) Is the 50m3 PD volume limit for a loft conversion calculated internally or externally? I've been told by several people it's internally and The Town and County Planning Order 2015 says internally...
