By the time we finished with rafter and eaves we will be at 14 degree’s, we are taking the risk on the 1 degree with the roof lights. yes the right hand side will be 20 degrees ( looking at the house from the rear) I have a roof design already for the whole roof. my point I’m trying to make is why is my planner thinking about making me change the roof design if I comply with all the planning documents from my council. Even if I have a flat, gable or hip, the ridge line will be above their roof.

Yeah I have Been round about 6 times talking them through the whole process and what I’m doing.. even paying my builder to block up the gap between my extension and their conservatory as they have built it 200mm off their boundary. i think ive really been fair. they are also trying to screw me on the party wall notice!

Between 14 / 15 degrees why?

They have full planning for it in 2003, I suspect they would of had full building control as they do everything By the book. there is a pair of doors into the living from to their conservatory

I’m not doing 6 mtr deep, it’s 4mtr deep

The dim to eaves is circa 2385 and the dim to top of gable roof is 3375 eaves dim to above Connie eaves as that’s 2550 so if I have a flat roof, hip or gable it’s going to over shaddow

Hi mike, I’m trying to get planning, they have lived there for 20 years. our gardens are north facing so there conservatory gets suns in the morning (which I’m on the other side) so I don’t block the sun, they will lose a bit of sun in July and August at night time when the sun is setting in the west.

Because I have to move my build over and it won’t be as good inside with the vaulted ceiling,

My plans attached showing extent

Hi mate, its under full planning permission.

Hi everyone, im new to this page, I’m after some advice.. I’m having a single storey wrap around extension built to the rear of my property, we live a in a semi detached house and the side nearest to my joined neighbour we are having a gable roof. They have a glass conservatory with a solid brick wall to one side (side facing us) - 200mm from the boundary, so based on our council’s planning document the solid wall means the 45 degree rule is taken from there middle point on that conservatory. We are well under this by about a metre and we are not going above 4mtr height. my neighbours daugther (who’s an architect) is getting into my planning officer to firstly try and refuse the extension and secondly try to change the gable to a hip roof so lessen the impact on their conservatory (suspect light and view) my planning officer emailed me yesterday saying he is seriously thinking about making me change the roof design. im trying to challenge this under what grounds as I’m compiling with everything else. Any help is appreciated thanks Martin
