Planning consent, Edinburgh - no news good news

Image
 So no news appears to be good news. The City of Edinburgh planning dept will now only respond if they want changes made or the application is likely to be refused. No dialoge. No response to emails. So hire an Architect with experience from the outset, as he will be able to guide you on the liklihood of approval from an early stage in the process. This application in Willowbrae Edinburgh had absolutely zero feedback from planning and then approved out of the blue! https://marchitectsltd.com

Winter weather

We have project which started in September, and despite all efforts it was not possible to get it wind and watertight before the winter storms hit.  It's always worth considering postponing construction to the period between Easter to Autumn especially if you are still staying in the property whilst work is underway. No one is living in the property we are extending. But it's still demoralising fighting the weather as well as trying to make progress.
