    I am looking at renovating a standard 3 bed semi house with an garage/extension on the side. The house is in pretty bad shape. There is a flat roof on the extension and it is leaking. Dampness is coming in through the walls because they are cavity block and because of in correct levels. I am thinking of replacing it with an apex roof. Would I need to get planning for this?

    Here is a list of jobs/works that need to be done and I would appreciate any rough estimates in regards to costs. Thanks;
    • PVC windows ( back of house only) 2 large + 3 small
    • Apex roof over extension
    • New kitchen
    • carpets replaced
    • engineers report
    • painting Int & Ext of house
    • Concrete double drive way
    • new appliances for kitchen, fridge, cooker, washing machine
    • solicitors fees
    • dry walling for all house and extension/garage conversion
    • install new Gas bolier
    • change level of footpath going around house
    • attic insulation in main house
    • PVC back door
    • PVC front pvc
    • Guttering PVC
    • Plans for roof - architect?
    • Planning permission
    • Extras
    Thanks a million

    i mite be undertaking a list neary identical to your one soon aswell,

    it all depends on the different sizes throughout the house you,d really need to measure everything and just ring around all the different trades you,ll need. but going by the list i,d say budget about 20-25grand.

    where abouts is the house if you dont mind me asking?
