Hey guys.
I’ve been thinking about our loft for some time and have decided that I want to apply for planning permission this year, so that I know what I can and can’t do before we make too many future plans.
I plan on doing a lot of the work myself, but getting pros in for the more complex tasks.
I have arranged for an architect to come over for a look and chat next week, but I’m not sure exactly what I need ask him and what checks (if any) I should do before using him.
So far I know I need:
Drawings for planning
Structural calcs for BC and beam orders.
Party wall notice(?) is that a job I can do myself?
What sort of accreditation, if any, should he be a part of?
Sorry if these are basic or silly questions, first big project for us!
Cheers
