Hi, hope everyone is safe and well. Could someone tell me if you can use Easydrive Timber Roofing Double Slash Point Screws 6.3 with Sela washers/Spat washers? My reason for using Sela/Spat washers is because i am using used Corrugated sheeting for a hut roof and the holes have been left slightly larger than normal and my thinking is the Sela washer is wider than the timber screws alone plus nailing to 18mm OSB. Many thanks

Hi thank you for the replies, it is indeed the council heres regulations,https://www.westlothian.gov.uk/article/33066/Sheds-garages-greenhouses-and-other-outbuildings Someone on a different forum had said i needed to include the house in the measurement but the regulations say its not included, i was just worrying a bit that after my son building it that he had went overboard with the size, and, being the council tenant, i would get the repercussions, so just wanted some expert advice on whether the size of garden and size of hut and extension to the property that i would get told to take it down as its not just the size of the hut but the size of the extension on the property they take into consideration.

Hi everyone thank you for letting me join. I class myself as quite a competent diyer but this is worrying me sick! Hi folks, im in a dilemma. Our planning permission in the area i live (scotland) states the following for building huts, sheds, man caves etc,. "the area of ground covered by all development (including the proposed building, any previous extensions to the house and any other buildings, but not the original house) in either the front or back garden is no more than half the area of that part of the garden". Now i measured our back garden, i never measured the side or front garden as there is no building structures in them and our back garden is 10 metres X 12 metres so i am assuming that equates to 120 square metres. I have an extension to the house which measures 10 foot 10 inches X 9 foot 4 inch and a hut which measures 20 feet X 15 foot 7 inches. My question relates to the hut in whether i have breached the clause "the area of ground covered by all development (including the proposed building, any previous extensions to the house and any other buildings, but not the original house) in either the front or back garden is no more than half the area of that part of the garden"? I did have a greenhouse in the back garden which measured 6 feet X 4 feet but i dismantled it because i was that worried in having breached this part of legislation as the hut was a gift from my family but i am now worrying myself sick, can anyone advise please.
