I've recently received planning permission for a GF extension after a long fight with the Local Council
Now looking at the roof (this was on the original application but pulled in order to give the council fewer things to object to) . I have three points with questions.....
I'd like to add some external wall insulation but the eaves will have to be extended to accomodate the build-up - this would necessitate a pitch change.
Installing a new roof to new Building Regs would require additional insulation - this would mandate a higher roof height by default
I'd like to replace a flat roof with a pitched one and Ideally, I'd like to vault the internal ceiling
Are local councils generally amenable to insulation improvements - is there any central government guidance I can cite to bolster my case?
Regards
Tet
