No it doesn’t need a raft so I will get a good quote to reinforce what is there. We are knocking down the house and replacing the. Whole thing (Same outline but with a 3.5x6m extension that is lower in the ground so there are 2 x steps down into it from the kitchen)

Thank you guys.

Thank you! I was told it mattered how far it was but couldn't find anything online to back that up.

Hey folks I have received a quote for a raft foundation. its roughly 120sqm but 50,000 seems ridiculous. I am getting other quotes in but this is from the oak frame company who include a price with their quote. Anyone find that similar price wise? The other option is to wirk with the foundations that we have but they are only 600mm (but solid) Anyone working with current foundations find that it was a lot cheaper that way? Cheers for listening

We are locating our ASHP on the side of the house as close to the wall as we can (as per guidelines) Its a new build and we are choosing to forgo gas and use solar with ASHP and a water tank. The location of the tank, however, is 3 metres away from the wall on the 1st floor - is this too far? Thank you in advance Claire
