Question about enforcement

[bearC]

I bought a house nearly 2 years ago with a extension that didn't get signed off when it was finished. It's was built over 4yrs ago so I believe it's past the period where any enforcement can be taken against it.

My question is if I was to make alterations to the extension would this have any affect on the enforcement rules?

Alterations would be raising the end of the extension so the roof is more flat so I can fit patio doors in at the end. Along with the brick work and patio doors I would look at installing a rubber roof

The four year rule became the 10 year rule a couple if years back. So unless it was substantially completed by then it may not not be immune from enforcement. Would it have been PD anyway, or acceptable to planners? Was it built to building regs standards, that might be a bigger issue?

It was completed in 2021. I believe the rules changed in 2024. So I don't thinks that's an issue.

I think it's slightly bigger than PD would of allowed(if it was im sure thats only 1yr enforcement) I think it would have come under the good neighbour scheme it's about 4x4 on a terraced house
