Hello.....again!
I'm currently preparing CAD drawings for application to build a single story extension.
My question is regarding the De Minimis or margin of error allowance when you come to build.
For example, on my drawings i'm making the extension 4 Metres wide, if i block on the lines the blocking width from one side to the other will be 4 Metres but if i then apply an outer render it will add 1.5cm to each side making it 3cm over to 4.03 Metres.
Would the extra 3cm fall under the De Minimis allowance?
The old existing extension (to be demolished) is 4 Metres wide at the base but 30cm up it is has been rendered making the extension above the 30cm line to be 4cm wider to 4.04 Metres. The original plans stated 4 Metres so wondering if he got away with it as the base bricking is spot on?
All good learning
Thanks in advance for any help / advice.
