Cost of sunroom extension
Is this cheaper than an extension by a meaningful amount? Can anyone tell me what to expect when we start getting quotes
Permitted conservatory size
How large can a conservatory be before planning permission is necessary? Does it vary for height, length, width or is it based on area alone?
Planning permission v Building regulations?
Can you explain to me precisely what the difference is between planning permission and building regulations? Is one more expensive than the other?
Non-Traditional Construction House
Hi, I've had a survey done on a property and it states, "The property appears to be of non-traditional construction. We suspect it may be a Swedish timber dwelling timber framed or possibly a Hawksley which is of concrete frame but with timber linings. Unfortunately, without destructive testing and significant further investigation, we cannot be conclusive with this respect." What does this mean and is it a cause for concern? Thanks!
Cost to repair damp floor at patio doors
I have been asked to get a quote for an insurance claim but i'm not sure what trade to contact. I notice water damage at the bottom of my kitchen unit. I pulled back the flooring at my patio doors & the floor is damp/wet. I have a couple of steps going down into the garden. I think the water has come in due to the heavy rain & high winds. How much would I be looking at to remediate the damage and what trade should i be contacting? Thanks.
Large fireplace opening
