Remembering that nothing must overhang including the eaves/gutters.

The problem is the executors are obliged to look after the interests of the beneficiaries. If the executors are family members they might co-operate with you and agree to share a Party Wall Surveyor. If the executors are a solicitor or some other professional they might feel the need to insist you pay for a second independent surveyor to represent the beneficiaries.

I put up both terrestrial TV aerial and Free Sat dish. Neither are particularly difficult. Sat dishes are possibly a bit harder to install because they need to be pointed a bit more accurately but you can do it with a cheap signal strength meter. The wind loading is higher with a dish so they need to be mounted a bit more securely. I guess the main advantage of a dish is they don't always need to be installed high up.

I can't comment on any particular product but the vast majority of devices on the market are total woo. Normally they make a lot of claims in terms that sound scientific but are just plain nonsense. Pretty much the only proven technology is salt based chemical water softening or similar. This is what wikipedia has to say about magnet based devices.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_water_treatment#:~:text=Magnetic water treatment (also known,regarded as unproven and unscientific. This is what the Advertising Standards Authority has to say.. https://www.asa.org.uk/advice-online/water-treatment-devices.html

Will spin or try to spin faster on the higher voltage. Mostly will work fine but just take care when under high load as there is greater risk of burning out the motor.

Some decades ago my dad managed to solder some lead sheet himself but I remember it being a difficult job. At least I learnt new swear words.

Just to add to what I was saying about BCO having some discretion... ours allowed us to put our oil tank between a timber clad garage and the boundary fence. Both less than a foot away. Mostly because the neighbour had done the same on his side. Definitly not according to the regs as our boiler service engineer points out every other year.

The specification page is what they call "content free". No information on gain etc. Thats never a good sign. Amplifiers are also a poor alternateive to aving the correct aerial. Something like a small log periodic might be worth considering. Cheap from Toolstation or Screwfix. Some rate the Optima L 20 F Element for areas with good signal. Just bear in mind that some locations and transmitter combinations have specific issues that make correct aerial choice more important. Any trees in the way

Welcome to the forum. The example they use here is of a garage but same rules apply to your outbuilding.. https://www.planningportal.co.uk/info/200130/common_projects/43/outbuildings/2 So how big is yours? Cladding the side facing the boundary in fire retardant board might be acceptable to the BCO but you will need to discuss with him exactly what he requires. Try and keep on his good side because they have some discretion to bend the rules. Sadly he may or may not be willing to discuss it with you until you pay a fee.

You could fit a geberit wall mounted WC/Frame and adjust the feet so its a bit on the high side. The outlet pipe from those has a 90 degree bend which can be turned "horizontally". There is a table of outlet height vs seat height in some of the installation manuals (this one from the USA).. https://www.geberitnorthamerica.com/local-media/instructions/968-075-00-0-sigma2x4-install.pdf

Could you replace the bend with solvent weld parts? eg just leaving one clip where it enters the unit? Edit: The rubber joints might be for noise reduction.

Many garages are single skin brick but they have piers every ?? meters. In the past curved or zigzag walls have been used to aid stability and these can create sheltered areas for exotic plants or humans...but obviously increase the number of bricks needed.

Old water pipe?

Indeed. What you can do and what you should probably do are different. I would at least lean on him a bit to try for a formal agreement so that it doesn't cause issues when you sell.

You can lobby the Planning Officer and members of the Planning Committee. You can also ask your MP to write to the chairman of the Planning Committee to support your proposed planning condition. However he may only agree to do so if you have support for that from neighbours - so perhaps send him a joint letter.

The relatively high cost of electricity vs gas (per kWH) means you need your ASHP to be running at close to maximum COP. This makes correct sizing of the ASHP important. Otherwise go for it. We have oil fired UFH and have it "on" 24/7, however we use set back on the thermostats to reduce temperatures at night.

540mm is about standard projection. Some companies make "short projection" wc but might be issues with the seat not staying up?

He is allowed to use the foundations of the wall if they extend over his side of the boundary. What he can't do is use your wall in any other way. Eg he can't rest the roof members on top of the wall or fix them to the side. If the wall is entirely on your property you could knock it down and replace with a chain link fence or bushes if you wanted.

Is the wall entirely on your side of the boundary? If so then he is in the wrong and cannot simply turn it into a party wall just by building on it. The encroachment over the boundary amounts to trespass. See down this page.. https://www.duncanlewis.co.uk/Actions-in-trespass.html However taking court action is expensive and courts have been known to award trivial damages where they consider the infringement to be modest. The court might award you a few £hundred and allow the trespass to continue. Most solicitors will give you 30 min free to discuss a problem. I suggest asking one to recommend a course of action and estimate the cost involved. Sadly if you dont like those costs there is little you can do apart from trying a no win no fee outfit. You could start with a solicitors letter asserting your rights over the wall and pointing out that as it is entirely on your land it is not a party wall and that his work does not make it a party wall. You could consider allowing him to continue to use the wall provided he sign a formal agreement to facilitate any extension you wish to build on your side. Ask the solicitor to quote to draw up such an agreement that can be added to his deeds.

Just wait until the wind is blowing away from houses and get on with it. I have 60m of hedge and the annual cutting produce three bonfires worth. I cut it in January and leave it for a month or two for any greenery to dry out. Few pints of diesel get it going.

You can get frames where the flush goes on top of the boxing or is remote (eg operated by air pipes) so it can be off to one side. The different heights are to allow different height boxing (eg under windows). The WC pan height is the same. See this picture.. Note that some WC have non standard dimensions for the distances between bolts, flush pipe and waste pipe. Shop around as prices for frames vary. Pre Brexit there was someone on ebay selling them from Germany cheap but I don't know about now.

TP1 doesnt really help. It requires you to comply with the covenants in the title referred to in section 12:15:1. But you need to see all of that title to know if they are enforceable. If you dont have the rest of that doc you can normally download it from the (real) LR website for about £3.

Is there a section heading/paragraph for the covenants 1 to 12? Or is that 12.16?

There are some rules that covenants have to follow or they can't be enforced. Typically they have to benefit nearby land and that land has to be identifiable. https://www.duttongregory.co.uk/site/blog/personalnews/freehold-restrictive-covenants-part-one 1. The covenant must be for the benefit of the covenantee’s land 2. The covenant was intended to run with the land 3. The party seeking to enforce the covenant must own the benefiting land 4. The benefit of the covenant has passed to the person seeking to enforce it Continues...

Read the terms of the insurance very carefully because some have conditions that invalidate the policy if you contact the beneficiary in any way.
