Hi I'm looking at at having an extention single story or a conservatory... (all depending on outcome and additional cost of soakaway) we have a concrete cylinder soak away currenly 5m from the house, (10year old build) if we extend, it would only end up being 2m from the new build, would we have to relocate the soak away which is around 1.5m circumference and poss 2m deep, which never really seems to contain anything even after a lot of rainfall. Just building rubble in the bottom. Could we just link the extention guttering into the current guttering? New build woul be approx 24sq m
Thanks for any advice you can offer

it all depends
if the extension requires building regs it is up to the BCO to make this choice,sometimes they say yes its fine going into existing,other times they want a new soakaway
if its a non building reg compliant conservatory you can do as you wish
