We have recently moved into a house and are looking at doing a hip to gable loft conversion. The previous owners got plans drawn up and initial permission. We need to start work before July to use this permission but don't have the money to do it yet. We have been advised to do a little bit of the work to start the project and get building control out so we don't have to start the process again.
My question is, what's the smallest piece of work we can do in a lift conversion and get building control out?
TIA
