Finally,finally, got my planning

Just out of interest,
If your not selling for a long while, & happy to go with the flow & just change what you 'know' what needs doing, why bother with the council 'box tickers' it's not a legal requirement is it.
I thought if you sold, the forms only asked if you had building work done in the last x years, if not can't you just take an insurance indemnity for the next purchaser in the unlikely event that it 'falls down'.
It seems they change the 'regs' that often on stuff i'e boilers etc that you are probably supposed to upgrade every year or when you have thingss inspected

My view, for what it's worth - ditch the local authority & go indie!!
+1,, The biggest player in this area threatened that a few years ago due to council 'over' stringency.They lightened up after they realised they would virtually have to shut down overnight if this 'customer' left.
Local & national authorities should realise that they are there to assist and work for/with people, not the other way round.
It's surprising how many builders will not take a job on (even in these times) if they know the BI is a Jobsworth A**hole as it's not worth the mither & effort
