Planning Insights:
1 months at planning
Self Build plots on Graven Hill, Bicester, come with a pre-approved planning passport. As long as planned project satisfies the pre-agreed list of conditions then approval should only take 1 month.
To achieve thermal envelope and no thermal bridging we required insulated raft instead. To solve problem a team of structural engineers were required to prove that the raft works on the site's clay.
Working alongside other self-builders can help share ideas/tools/materials and labour. Listening to others can be very inspiring.
Tool hire can be very expensive. Consider buying "used" and then able to keep on site for entire project, not just for essential times, and then re-selling afterwards. This can save a lot of money.
