Hi all,



Where is this going to be installed? Have you bottomed out all the
Planning and Building regs issues?


If it's in his (rear/side) garden, I don't think that there are any issues
provided that he doesn't convert it into something that is intended to be
slept in.


There are quite a few, but I don't think most people take any notice.
Unless it's built of non-combustible materials, it must be at least
1 metre from the house and 1 metre from all the property boundaries.
PP required if total area of sheds and decking reaches 50% or more of
original garden size (or something like this).
Limits on height before requiring PP.
Limits on floor area before requiring BR.
Limits in conservation areas.
More I've forgotten.
