Thread: Building Regs

Hi All

The people doing the development behind my house have put what looks like a storage room on the house backing onto mine. This room is bang up against my wall about 4 metre wide and comes about 2 metres higher than my wall. The roof overhangs the wall marginally and once the gutter is attached will overhang into my garden. The wall itself belongs to me.

My neighbour tells me that local regulation's here in Pattaya say you cannot build a house within 2 metres of a party wall. Any truth in this ?

Thanks

I did the same thing.
built a kitchen extension tight onto my neighbour's wall.
it is definitely a breach of whatever regulations are in force.

I thought regs didn't allow you to build within a metre of the wall rather than 2.

Either way, it's definitely wrong.
don't think my neighbour's know about the rules though.

It depends on which council and how high the house

I think it should be at least 1 metre away whatever

go to your local council planners and make a complaint, add a bit of grease money, maybe B2000, and see what happens
