House extension...footings required.
Unbelievable Jeff replied to Unbelievable Jeff's topic in The Lounge
As said above I will definitely be getting building regs for this extension. -

Excellent, thanks also for this. -

We'll definitely get building regs for the extension, it's just the internal work we're not currently. On the other side of the wall is their extension which protects about 1m out from the house, so the remaining 4m there isn't anything, but for that first meter there is. I don't know the soil composition, I'll get someone out to look at this. It's currently covered by a patio... -

Excellent, thank you very much. We will get BC involved for the extension for sure - we will make sure the extension is legitimate. We do have planning permission for it, even though I'm not sure we actually need it. We are on good terms with the neighbours, I just worry it could become costly if they decide to appoint a surveyor. I'll have a word. Am I right in thinking that we only need an agreement if the foundations are at a lower level than their's? Is there an option where we don't use masonry walls, or is a masonry shell always needed? -
Agreed.

He was built like John Regis. The guy was a mountain. Went to prison after he retired didn't he, or was on the run or something?

Haven't bought a COD game since Black Ops. Personally I only play online, so find Battlefield better. By the way, anyone on here play Battlefield on the PS4?

Getting really ****ed off at not being able to get a feeder club in Europe for me to send players out to get work permits. Club always say they agree with the request, but always return with no-one. Why is it so difficult?

Ok, so we have some pretty knowledgable people on this forum, so I was wondering if you could help me out... I bought a house 2 years ago that needed extreme internal remodelling. I have been doing this with my father in law over the last 2 years, 1 day a weekend, and has included partial removal of load bearing walls, removal of stud walls, creation of new doors, moving of stairs etc. We have done this without Building regs due to the fact that it costs a decent amount when you're doing so many small jobs that need it, and the impracticality of having people round to check it. When we bought the house we had to get some indemnity insurance due to the fact that an extension had been built and altered without building regs approval (I believe it was a garage that was converted into a lounge). We do have calculations for all the steels we have put in etc, and it's finished to a really high quality within building regs but we're hoping this won't really matter in the long term - the only issue will be if the council "find out" that we've been doing it and we have to prove all the work. Anyway, I degress. We are looking to put a single storey extension on the back of our kitchen to make it a kitchen/diner. It is around 4m wide by 5m long, and will consist of two walls (left and end walls) of bi-folding doors, and a third wall (right) that will be solid as it is at the edge of the boundary. What I wanted to know is about foundations. When we were looking at putting a timber frame double garage down at the bottom of our garden we were told we need to construct a concrete base to place this on. If we were to put in a timber frame for our extension, will we need to put 'proper' foundations down or could we put down a solid concrete base - we will be digging at the boundary next to the foundations of next doors extension and I'd prefer not to have to give them the opportunity to appoint a surveyor as this can be very costly and waste time. A timber frame extension would be a lot lighter, so I was wondering what our options are here. Anyway, any advice would be appreciated.

It was very popular when I went there, although that was 2002. Just tons of time spent down at Fistral in Cornwall.

Isn't there a management company that the majority of players had? -

Great news if true, just need to get him up to match fitness. May be an important player come April. -
I'm not sure I agree. If someone is faced with £40k of debt to do a degree like surf studies I believe it will make them more likely to think more practically about the subject they're doing as they know they will have more to pay off, and frankly I think most people going to university will expect to earn £21k or more at points in their life (although possibly not all).

I'm not sure I want Europa League. Can't make any Sunday games, too many games for not much money (we couldn't expand the squad enough to deal with it) and would put our league position under threat. We'd end up around the quarters and then finish 10th or 14th at best imo. Prefer to be best of the rest in the Prem, with a chance of upsetting the odds every season. Just for me personally anyway, however good it would be to have some European away games. Also still think we have a good chance at top 4.
