You would have to get the councils permission first, and you may have to agree to put it back as it was should you leave. If you buy the flat you could, and you would need Building Regulations approval in both cases, (no need for planning.) An easily removable stud partition may be the answer.

hope that helps

You would need the owner's permission to modify the property if you are renting it, even if the owner is the council.

If you've bought it then you can put up a temporary (ie easily removable) partition without any problem. If the partition is permanent then you'll need Planning Permission because the Building Regulations will be involved. These concern: original specification of the flat, minimum legal floor area, access and egress, fire proofing, ventilation, lighting, electrical supplies, floor loading, etc.

mmmm between you and me, who is to know? I did this when the kids were small. You can put up a timber batten wall but install it with long countersunk screws into existing floor and ceiling joists. If it is solid floor just use angle brackets inside the wall line screwed into plugged holes in the floor. You can either use plasterboard or plywood to cover the frame, even using firbreglass insulation to reduce noise.

just remeber everything you do needs to be undone leaving no trace if you move. if done correctly you just have a dozen or so screw holes to fill.make all electrical fittings temporary.

If you owned the place, do what you want.

No you are not allowed to do anything like that .unless you were allowed to buy the property and then you would still have to get permission from the council etc.

To build or knock down anything in a council property as far as I'm aware you have to apply to the council & state your reasons for wanting to do it. Don't quote me on that but that's as far as I know :)

Woodchip would not commonly come off genuinely because it receives painted with vinyl emulsion which effectively waterproofs it. you ought to ought to employ a steamer which makes it extra reachable, yet nevertheless takes a lengthy time period. you ought to bypass to a perfect Decorators provider provider and get a pointy bladed stripper that has blades like a stanley knife. then you definitely ought to both do it your self or get a labourer for an afternoon. depending how large those chunks of plaster are, fill them your self with the appropiate cloth. that is no longer rocket technology.

to do it ..and legally ..you would need permission from your council ..then you would need to construct the wall to satisfy building regs ...by all means build in stud ..its easiest ...but each room will need a window ..and the window would need to be big enough to be an escape window ..you would allso need a form of corridor ..you are not allowed to go through one room to get to another ..so you would need a rightangle corridor .

It's always a decision for the owner.

without consent no, because you don't own the home, if you brought it then maybe
