  1. I'll probably just go this way like suggested, I wasn't aware such thing existed, but seems well worth the £200 for everyone involved.
  2. your building can be within 1m of boundary as long as it is under 2.5m at its highest point. building regs nothing to do with and not required for planning or PD. This doesn't appear to be the case if you're within 1m of the boundary and it's build of "combustible materials" (timber)
  3. From what I can gather it has the potential to fall foul due to the following: Within 1m of boundary and what could arguably be considered "combustible materials" Toiler/sink/water supply Building regs - the only official thing I have is the electric cert.
  4. Hello everyone, I hope you guys here can offer me some advice and experience on my situation, I've furiously been googling this for a few days, read alot of stuff, some conflicting, and found this forum. Anyway I thought I would make my own post given it appears almost all situations are unique and there's alot of interpretation involved. In 2017 I built what could be considered a home bar/garden room, what ever you want to call it, I was aware of permitted development, but probably didn't do enough to fully understand it and the do's and don'ts in my situation, details on my build are below: Height is within rules, under 2.5m from the highest point of my property It is within 1m of my boundary on both sides Under 50% of my land I live on an end house, so it's within 1m to the footpath on one side. 22m2 internal area, 3m2 overhang of the roof/decking area infront of my bifold doors. Timber framed on a concrete base. Kingspan insulation, walls, ceiling and floor Fireboarded plasterboard walls and ceiling - then skimmed External cladded walls GRP Roof - Flat roof Toiler/sink with waste pipe going direct to the manhole/drain in my garden Electric with it's own breaker board - signed off by an electrician. It's a good build, done my by father (joiner of 40 years) and myself. I believe I fall foul of quite a few PD rules here. I'm looking to sell my house very soon and not concerned my build could cause me issues, so I'd like to apply for a lawful development certificate under the 4 year rule. Can any of you offer any advice at all, can I apply myself, does it need to be really in depth and water tight given it's over 4 years. Edit: In terms of proving when it was built, I have google earth/maps/street view - dated Pictures from phones etc. which I assume have metadata Invoices for materials - dated
