Morning everyone on this fine
Sunny day :)

I’m the next few months we are going to be building a small single extension to the back of the house opening up the kitchen

Instead of just having a flat roof I wondered what the regulations would be to take advantage of the situation and build the roof to spec for a terrace/ balcony area.

The add on is going to be 3 metres wide x 2m deep. Across the far end where the doors will be (3 metre width) I’ll obviously be using a lintel not sure if I should use a catnic type or rsj

It’s not going to having paving slabs just artificial grass and of course a 1 metre high safety barrier around

Thanks
Jake

Hey Freddie,

I was afraid that may be the case

Our house is a bit of a L shape at the back so the extension is like a upside down L if that makes sense so would overlook forward and the right… oh well it was crying out to be a terrace lol

No, that doesn't really make sense, as mentioned context and overlooking issues will be important.
