    I don’t understand as that’s how they are designed, it does not have to be vertical, horizontal will do for the pipe bit as it’s a pumped supply. OR will it fit to that blank below the small sink (far right?j
  2. joe90
    It should connect to that blanked off bit far left of your photo, can’t find just that bit but you could use one of these and use the pipe connector only https://www.screwfix.com/p/mcalpine-v33s-compression-domestic-appliance-tee-piece-connector-white-40mm/4167P?kpid=4167P&ds_kid=92700055281954514&ds_rl=1249404&gclid=Cj0KCQjwl92XBhC7ARIsAHLl9al99MvEDW8bzYH3Ye4NlsghvxCE5GiVuPeNu8SlTZipC1bzINR2gDAaAv7EEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

    Better to have timber, even if temporary wet they can dry out in between, in the ground they are permanently damp..

    I think this depends on a few things, are the posts going all the way up to the handrail? (I would, makes the handrail a lot stronger). How are you going to fix the 3 sides to the posts?

    No need to worry about height of concrete pad as long as it’s above the 70mm you are short of. (Why I said 100mm) Bung the post on top and cut it off where necessary to match the rest of the platform! The shoe is a great idea, stops the post rotting in the ground.
  6. joe90
    Zoot why don’t you build two concrete pads, into the ground and 100mm above ground level with a bit of bar sticking up, drill hole in the bottom of the post and it won’t move.
  7. joe90
    Must be lengthwise as the support timbers are opposite 🤷‍♂️
  8. joe90
    Yes @zoothorn, good progress, slow but steady 👍. I do think @Onoffsuggestion above about the end hangers being inboard and extra board on spacers is the best and neatest suggestion. Question….are you using decking boards fir the “floor”?, if so the extra board suggested could be wider and cover the end Grain of the decking boards 🤷‍♂️
  9. joe90
    Yes No, so no CHP 🙄

    👍 I have an old dumper with a petter engine, loads of them in India fir village electrical generation .
  11. joe90
    Yes and no, still available but more limitations on use, I will google it when I have time.
  12. joe90
    You need a small diesel as red is so much cheaper to run.

    Been away and missed all this…spirit levels, yes bubble tube is bent so only works the right way up, it’s concave so when level the bubble is at the highest point (the middle).
  14. joe90
    Yes I know that, just saying I didn’t realise that a wall existed where that black line was. Just found this from a solicitor on a different forum. I think you need to wait and see how the council react to what you have done so far. Planning classifications are normally not dependent upon who owns the land. SO it is quite possible to privately own public open space and that private owner would be bound by that classification. The local authority's land charges department will have the details alongside the planning department.
  15. joe90
    Ah, so that’s where the black line comes from, didn’t see that wall before, but the land outside is within your deeds “red line”. That makes more sense.
  16. joe90
    +1, if you copy next door no one can complain as that was accepted and a precedent set, you can always add plants or gates later.
  17. joe90
    Ah, didn’t see that feint red line on my iPad unless I zoomed in a lot. But why is there a black line extending along the edge of the garage to the front path and back to the boundary?, this is not the same as the other end of the terrace 🤷‍♂️. Let’s see what the council say I guess.
  18. joe90
    ? Yes, no time limit as far as I know, as said above ask for a copy of the legislation they are relying on.
  19. joe90
    NO, having wasted money with a planning specialist for my planning applications (four) I did the appeal myself, no costs!!! In fact I found the appeal easier than dealing with the planners, they certainly knew more about how to deal with people than the local council did 🙄. Looking forward to hearing how you get on 👍
  20. joe90
    Thanks, those two contradict each other, red line shows the ownership boundary on the lower one but the other has that black line separating the side portion of land from house and garden, having had planning wars over my build I understand how difficult it is to fight them so depends how hardball you want to fight this. I will add that I went to appeal to the Secretary of State over my fight AND WON! (so I have a low opinion of planners 🤷‍♂️)

    Where did that diagram come from?, do you have a diagram/drawing from your deeds?
  22. joe90
    Looking at this again, I wonder why No 71 has a green strip on that diagram? (Amenity land??) but they have fenced it in with their garden. I wonder why No 73 (yours) shows a black line from your back/side house wall junction to No 9, no one else on that diagram has this type of line??
  23. joe90
    Why not fence it like opposite and plant a hedge inside eventually you can trim it to the height you want, slowly slowly it will grow and people will get used to it. Saves all this fighting 🤷‍♂️. Frankly a panel fence will either get graffiti on it or get holes punched in it, or both. Difficult to damage a hedge over a picket fence.
  24. joe90
    What does this mean?. If your using this amount of “energy” your house is not very well insulated and any “fuel” type will use a lot. From my understanding electric is about 3 or 4 times the price of natural gas but LPG is more expensive than that, if you have a decent COP with your ASHP (say 3) then a change to LPG will not cost a lot less. Others will be along with accurate figures shortly.

    Open fireplaces are very inefficient and a permenant draft, no a wood stove can be fitted without removing all that stone work (some work required within the “throat”).
