Building control can't do anything after 15 years, so it's worthless there.
12 months.

Building control have signed off on the works so very pleased about that!
Congrats on the sign off. However, re your earlier concerns on whether it was built to an acceptable standard, unless BC asked for an exploratory dig of the front wall foundations and / or did any exploratory work to measure the level of insulation, the sign off does not give you any further assurance on any of these.0 -
Thanks all
I think we should be able to get this through now. As some have stated the freeholder doesn't appear to be overly bothered. Hopefully I can get written confirmation they are fine with the alteration and happy to sell. I probably would of kept quiet about it and just bought the freehold in a couple of years had my solicitor already started digging into the bones of it.
Having the alteration signed off gives me peace of mind. I know should circumstances change I have all the I's dotted and T's crossed.
Everybody has been extremely helpful and I thank you all for that. The next time I move will be into a 6ft hole in the ground!0 -
I wouldn't get as far as viewing a leasehold detached. You may well have dodged a bullet there0
