Penthouse On Existing Bungalow? by dotcomnamename(op): 5:15pm On Jul 29, 2018
Is it possible to build penthouse on existing bungalow during renovation? Does that mean a different building approval must be applied for?

Mod pls

First you will have to seek approval from Development Control for this as the initial approval was just for the building of the bungalow.

let's desist from giving wrong advices. if you don't know, kindly step aside and read comments. a renovation of that magnitude would need approval and even integrity test on the existing bungalow. Let's build safe.

A structural engineer would definitely be called upon to have a look at the building,Before erecting.
It all balls down to how old the building is and the soil bearing capacity. If your a building professional you should know better.
