Thank you for letting me join here
My request for help ( which would extremely grateful ) if anyone could point me in the right direction.
We purchased our house ( around 2004 build ) and there scope to complete a single extension across the back. The previous owner spoke they were going to do the same ( had some drawings done and applied to council for approval- Approval given and currently still valid )
We were told they started the works but as it started the wife who looked at a new build for ideas fell for it so that put a stop to it
Through a neighbour when mentioning about possibly looking at this they spoke the previous owner had fun and games ( but hence we won’t know if they did or not? ) as you can imagine when viewing the house they weren’t going to rush to tell us if it wasn’t going to straight forward.
So my GF is worried if steels or piling would be needed ?? but if it was a case that would be needed? She wants to weigh up the costs before hand.
A think the easiest question to ask? Is there any test or sampling works that could be completed now before paying for drawings etc
A rear property ( 3 or 4 houses back on the rear ) has had a single extension and we popped to see them and they said they didn’t have any piling works completed etc.
Any help anyone could offer I would be extremely grateful
