I have just moved into my new house. I currently have an ensuite bathroom on the first floor. This was an alteration to the property about 10 years ago. I want to change the layout slightly to increase the size of the bathroom and move the door to the hall way. The original alteration has removed half of an internal wall and put up new walls to enclose the bathroom, my plan is to remove the rest of the wall and alter the other walls.
Questions:
1. Do I need permission for the change as I will be changing the hall way layout and so potentially fire exits from bedrooms?
2. Do I need permission for the bathroom changes, the toilet will remain in the same place?
3. Do I need permission to remove the rest of the original wall if there has already been permission for some of its removal in the original alteration.
4. How can I find out what the original alteration had permission for, including an exact description.
Appologies if this exposes my ignorance but i'm just starting out and know i have a lot to learn!
Cheers.
