My side kitchen extension is coming along. As I’m doing it myself as a novice I’m kind of working to my plans, but as expected I have to problem solve (make it up) as I go along.
Where to put the rainwater is an issue. BC said it should go into a soak away. Seeing as it drains to the front and I want to do my drive in the near future, this could be a problem. I’d much rather put it into the combined drain.
I’ve had a bit of an email conversation with my BCO, but his reply’s are very by the book and don’t seem to stray from that. He states that any new collected water should go to a soak away. However, I originally had outhouses and a lean to down the side which I knocked down. These did drain into the combined drain. So my reasoning is that no new water would enter the drain......
Can’t seem to get the obvious go ahead from him - what would you do?
