Hi folks We had planning granted in 2020 yes, the covid year, and made the 'significant start' as required by the council planners so the garage is built and keeping ths permission live. Originally our architect designed a very nice bungalow, but as time has gone on we realise we don't need such a large bungalow and we are getting less able to do much of the build ourselves, so........ We looked at the very favourable Dan Wood turnkey option. I have several questions which I hope someone here may have already experienced and overcome. 1. The Dan Wood bungalow we like is smaller than we have planning granted for. Is this going to be a problem with the council? We want to try to do it as an amendment as spent too many thousands getting the original planning to srart again. What is the likelyhood? 2. How precious are Dan Wood about an architect of our choosing having access to their drawings? 3. Are Dan Wood forthcoming with sharing their needs with our structural engineer? Are Dan Wood forthcoming about any outside 'interference '? I can hear the chorus of 'why not ask Dan Wood',. but I feel they may just say of course they are very accommodating! Thanks in anticipation
