  • Driveway drainage

    I’m having driveway installed in front garden there’s been a retaining wall put in and the driveway will be on flat ground after being excavated, it’s approx 4.8mx4.8m and there’s a lot of water gathered in the area now. Will this area need drainage or will it be ok once the type 1/sand and monoblock is done?

    Replacing patio doors with wall

    Our house has a large kitchen extension. However, the patio doors on what used to be the external wall were never replaced. We now want to put up a wall on 1/3 of the door opening and replace with internal french doors on the remaining opening. Does it require any permissions/building regulations? Is the wall load bearing? Thanks
