Remove suspended joists
Hi, I live in a Victorian ground floor flat where I like to create an open plan kitchen and living room on what's currently my master bedroom since it has a backdoor to the garden. To do this, I'd need firstly to turn down the current division between the kitchen and this master bedroom, in addition to get rid of the existing master bedrooms ensuite. All these walls are dry walls so get rid of the existing kitchen units and the walls shouldn't be complicated. The height of this potential new area of the house is 2.15m however there's a wooden suspended floor with a crawling space below of around 1m height if I were to replace this suspended joists and insulate/dump proof the very bottom of the cellar, I'd be changing the height to around 3m which is a huge improvement. Said this, I'm aware that maybe the cost that this would involve could mean that it doesn't worth it since I'm not planning to live in this house more than 5 years, so all I'm trying to achieve is to add value to the property and know the costs in advanced to work out how to proceed. Many Thanks, Juan

Planning permission for a log cabin
Do I need planning permission to have a log cabin constructed? And if so, what is involved in the process? Does permitted development depend on factors such as the scale and type of log cabin? Thanks for your time.
