  • Has anyone asked their solicitor questions after completing? I think as long as it's within a few months hopefully they'll help me

    -thinking about getting retrospective permission for my back windows getting changed by previous owners.
    -not sure if I need PP to retrofit double glazing on front side original sashes (conservation area, not listed)

    And a few other bits

  • Has anyone asked their solicitor questions after completing?

    I did. They were helpful.

    -thinking about getting retrospective permission for my back windows getting changed by previous owners.

    That doesn't often need permission. I wouldn't bother, it's unlikely anyone will ever challenge it.

    -not sure if I need PP to retrofit double glazing on front side original sashes (conservation area, not listed)

    I think you do. Call the council and ask. There is a reasonable chance you aren't allowed to do that at all, you will not get planning permission, in a conservation area.

  • Yeah asked various minor questions not dissimilar to what you mention after we completed - lawyers were more than happy to spare a few mins here and there. Worst thing they can say is no!
