Thanks for your advice, I have submitted the plans, I carried on working on them from that post

I should have added double walls, but i am a complete newbie

the worst that can happen is the council bounce them! So i am going to continue working on them, and try and produce some better plans for future projects etc.!

the problem i can see is, where i have used internal measurements for wall and not allowed for wall thickness one of the windows doesn't look quite rightly positioned!

Its all a learning curve and I have never done anything like this till last night! Thanks for all your help and advice

Hi there
im a complete newbie to house plans however my wife and I are looking to convert out garage into a extra bedroom, usually this can be done without submitting plans however there is a marker on our property that states the garage must be a garage and the only way to change this is to include full plans

using measurements from when the house was on the market and bits and pieces i have measured, i have created a floor plan for the ground floor in sketchup (using ft and inches) it seemed pretty painless

however the council want it submitted with a scale bar, this is where i get confused... also the prospect of drawing elevations is scaring me.. can anyone offer any advice?

this is the guidance the council gave me http://www.canterbury.gov.uk/assets/planning/Draft%20validation%20checklists%20Final%20April%202011%20(2)%20new%20version2.pdf#page=13
