| Building
Regulations:
If you live in England and
Wales, conservatories are usually exempt
from building regulations. As a general
rule to qualify for this exemption, your
conservatory should meet the following
criteria laid out under the 1991 Building
Regulations:
- The extension has a completely
transparent or translucent roof.
- The extension’s
walls are substantially glazed (no more
than 25% of its wall area should be
brickwork).
- The extension has a floor
area not exceeding 30m2.
- The extension is sited
at ground level.
Our home surveyors
can advise on building regulation requirement
for your property. If building regulations
are required then you can obtain it yourself
from plans we supply or we can handle
everything for you. Costs for building
regulations vary depending on the size
of the proposed construction. Our architects
fee to draw up the plans and submit them
is £120.00.
