    Planning permission

    I intend raising the pitch on my garden outhouse (11ft x 7.5ft) to accommodate clay tiles. Originally they replaced asbestos tiles several years ago but the pitch was too low subsequently letting water in, destroying felt and timber within. Now I want to renew the roof using the clay tiles, however have received conflicting advice concerning the need for planning permission. Please can someone clarify the matter for me? Thankyou

    I can see daylight in loft now neighbours had their roof done

    Hi My neighbour just had their slate roof redone. They've used felt, new slates and a bonding gutter between the houses. The problem is that were the 2 roofs meet I can see daylight now in my lift. The slates on my roof now slope up a little bit to get onto the bonding gutter. There is no sign of any water coming in though, even though we've had heavy rain, strong winds and snow. Should I be worried?
