5 x 4 m greenhouse

Step 4 Design and permit

OK, most material have arrived, there is some idea about what to build, the materials, the sizes...

1) make a preliminary design, a drawing. Find out what more to obtain, plus alternatives.

2) Check out the building codes and rules of your place: submit, in a casual way, the design to the board, the authority which has to approve construction (in my case, the allotment board).

3) Discuss and modify problems in he design. When everything is OK, submit the corrected design. Get the approval!, in writing!!!

Forget to take this step? prepare to rebuild!!!!

My first greenhouse was built without approval. I had to take it down!!!

Check if you can build!!!

Thats a nice basalt wall.
I know how hard it is to build a wall from rough stone.
I would be really, really upset, if I had to demolish it.
I wonder what possible reason they had, for non approval ?

Anything which is not ' normal' is suspect... The usual ' slipping slope' fallacy: 'if We allow this, everyone will start doing something like this, and the place will become a mess'......

That's a very nice thing.In the suburb district here,almost no one build a greenhouse.people plant vegetables according to the climate.
