  1. We've had our planning permission granted and I'm looking at getting water to the property. There is a water main about 10m from one of our boundaries, but it runs across a neighbours land. Other neighbours have mentioned having trouble with him in the past, so I'm expecting this to be difficult. I can see that according to the "Water (Scotland) Act 1980" that Scottish water do have the right to access private property to install new connections. However, in their sign up portal, they won't let you proceed without a letter from the neighbour giving permission to access their land. It sounds like they want to avoid having to go this route if at all possible. So, my question(s): How likely is it that Scottish water will go down this route rather than saying "It's too expensive" and rejecting us? Has anyone else run into this before?
  2. We've got requirements of "natural stone" for example. Does that change things?
  3. We've got a plot and planning permission has been granted, but they've added the following stipulation: Now, i through l make sense. But for a through h, how much detail are they looking for here? For a wall, I can give them a brick to look at sure, but what about windows? Do I have to order a very small window of the same style we plan on using and show them it? What if that product stops being offered by the time we need to order it? Or the price increases and we can't afford that one? Or what if we just change our minds? It seems very unclear what we need to commit to _exactly_ and what we need to show them vs what we have some control over through the build. Can anyone give any guidance here? Thanks! Edit: In case it wasn't obvious from my username, I'm in Scotland, in case that changes anything.
