Ferdinand Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 (edited) I had a visit from a retired teacher this week, who wanted advice on replacing a single glazed old conservatory with something new, and how to find a builder. My points: 1 - Build an extension with a real roof not a conservatory. Seasonality of conservatories. 2 - Local word of mouth recommendation for a builder. It is a little too far to recommend a builder. 3 - It may not require PP depending on the distance from the boundary. Is there anything better I could have said? One complication - that one side of the conservatory is moderately close to a boundary. We were playing "the one that got away" games to try and decide how far, and she was concerned that planning permission may be needed. But I think that if an extension needed PP so would a conservatory. Ferdinand Edited February 6, 2018 by Ferdinand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterW Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 If they get a move on and it’s done before April 2019 and not in a conservation area etc then they can do it under the current exemptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
