  1. Hi mate. It is vented to atmos via the stack on our other bathroom they both go to the same chamber.
  2. I have had an above garage extension with bathroom. The architect planned it that a new manhole would be dug and we would tee into the main drain approx 15ft away which is shared with neighbours. Not sure where it is exactly and we know it is 5ft deep, I've looked into the possibility of running it directly below into the garage against the wall then horizontal across the wall for 3 feet, then knock a hole through the wall into the downstairs toilet. Run it down the wall in there next to the toilet and get the plumber to rejig the soil pipe in there. Any thought on which is best and cost for new drain outside. I guess the inside option will be 3 to£400 going off previous work. Also will the BI be ok with an internal drain do this way. I know it needs fireproofing. Thank in advance for any thought
  3. Ok next door extension is done. Not a good job and less than 0.9m away at fascia. Before this we had planty of space around 3.5m There is an overhang as they accidentally built within 2mm of my estimate of the boundary and my level is 60cm lower so makes it looks worse. They fitted 2/3rd of the gutters by taking the tiles off to do it but did not put it over my side. They have siliconed and taped a plastic strip across the tiles to run water to the gutter from where they trespass even though they currently are between 6 and 7 inches over. Planning enforcement are going to look and i have legal option.
  4. Nothing written, it was verbal. I have now lasered extension and it 20 to 25cm bigger than the planing permission. Obvious may not be 100% but i did it 3 times with the same figure and then just tested the laser in my house at the same distance.The plans show a gap between properties of approx 100 to 150mm. Having been out there with the owner he said it was accidental that it was built on the border. I don't think so.

  6. Well As spinney predicted the builder after being told no access to our garden sneeked in at about 8.30 to do gutters. Luckily I had erected a camera and spotted them. They the tried again by tying to sneek behind bushes.
  7. I dont know about the plasterboard but you will be grateful for them insisting on acoustic insulation.
  8. Ive have just put my readings in 600kw april may june.. Should be around £500 on 2011 tariff. 2.5kw system.
  9. I think an integrated gutter is the answer then we would accept a couple of inches overhang. Yes we have legal cover.
  10. See what happens, builder has been told no more access and no gutters to be fitted due to trespass. They cant fit the gutters from there side, pretty sure of that.

  12. We didn't complain as we felt it was pointless.it does not affect our light and believed it would be 100% on their side. As it is they cant complete it without access to my property which is denied as it will cause further overhang.
