We have a conservatory built across the back of the house that was purpose built as a conservatory with planning permission / building consent (not as a permitted development).
For the last 6 months it has been too cold to use, OTOH in summer the temperature in there can get to over 77 c.
Currently the roof is of double glazed panels. In order to be able to get some reasonable use out of the place for more of the year I'm considering insulating the roof and fitting a ceiling of hardwood boards.
Some of the neighbours have already done something along these lines.
Might there be a big problem with the Council wrt building consent etc? The neighbours would not be unduly troubled by formalities such as that. Any other pitfalls ?
