Right, I am about to move house, filling in all the solicitors paperwork etc, had a dormer extension done around 5 yrs ago, got it signed off by building regs etc all legitimate i assumed
However it seems that no planning application was submitted by the builders who done the conversion! did he have too, or because it was under a certain size etc could he just do it without??
Most of my street has had a dormer conversion, mine being a single dormer, others have double dormers, so permission should not be a problem anyway.
working out the maths with the garage space included (this counts towards the final area) it just comes under 70m3, but I built a shed with the salvaged timber which would add to that size and bring me over if I had or need retrospective permission (and declared the shed) or because the roof was built before the shed would i be ok??
any advice or comments would be gratefully received, as retrospective permission if required will add around 2 months on the move and possibly scare off my purchaser

Ok thanks Mr Moderator, accept my apology, just wondering if anybody else has had experience of this?
