A Practical Guide to Alterations and Extensions

by Andrew R. Williams

At some point, most home-owners have to make a choice: whether to move or extend their property. In the case of the latter, there is a further choice - to put the whole matter into other hands or to try to understand the processes involved so that the whole business is carried out efficiently and cost-effectively. Those working or planning to work in the construction industry also need to be reminded of the pitfalls of local authority requirements, building control and planning, and this book provides a simple-to-use and very readable account of the necessary action.

About the author

By day mild mannered Andrew R. Williams is a chartered surveyor.... but after twilight falls, he snatches up his pen and the writing takes control. The Fyfield Plantation is Andrew's second creation, and the third Arcadia's Children instalment pores out of Andrew on only the coldest and darkest of nights. When he isn't writing, or chartering surveyoring, Andrew spends time with his wife Geraldine, staring up at the stars, and plotting eventual world domination. Don't let that calm demeanour and easy smile fool you, oh no.
