Gas supply going from main house to potential converted outhouse
Hi, I am looking to buy a house soon and in the garden of this house is an outhouse which the previous owners had used as music studio. It has a working toilet in it. i am thinking converting this into a seperate residence/flat for hosting Airbnb or keep tradional tenants. It doesnt have a gas boiler or gas supply going in. The outhouse is located within 10 meters of the property itself With regards to gas, i think its probably better to have a seperate supply/meter to avoid complications. Im posting this to see what the process would be for this? can any qualified builder qualify for this or do i have to get British gas to dig up the garden/road to lay down the supply? Will the supply split at the point of where my gas meter is? (The outhouse has electricity from the house but we would need its own meter as well) Looking forward to hearing your thoughts
Convert Bathroom to Bedroom
Hello Everyone, I'm thinking of converting an upstairs bathroom (tiled walls and floor) to a bedroom. Whilst doing this, I am also thinking of adding a small ensuite + toilet in the upstairs (next to the new converted bedroom). The upstairs is currently two big bedrooms and a decent sized bathroom; at the end of the project, it'll be two big bedrooms, one small bedroom and one small ensuite. There's a big bathroom on the ground floor. Is this possible?
