Hello there,

I am a bit in the predulie (is that spelled correctly?).

Two years ago, I applied for a "permit-free construction project."

A carport with 30sqm and an associated shed with 20sqm. Distance to the property boundary 3m. Maximum height under 3m. As far as everything is lawful in Hessen and approved.

With the civil engineering, everything has changed a bit. The structural engineering is now planned.

Carport including shed built-up area 55sqm. Interior area 49.5sqm. Roof area just under 102sqm.

Adjacent is the terrace and with a support foot, the roof is now extended 2.8m towards the terrace as an overhang. Is that included in the calculations? It's actually a roof overhang, right?

So. Roof height is now also about 3.5m at the highest point and the driveway width to the street is now "only" 2.65m. (Very little traffic, 3 cars a day, two-lane with sidewalk, dead end).

In the end, I know that I am no longer permit-free now.

The carport was designed by a well-acquainted master carpenter (exam passed a year ago). Nothing has been approved statically, etc. yet.

Now my actual question: How is it best to proceed now? I actually wanted to order the wood this or next week. Run it through the timber-cutting system in 6 weeks and put it up.

I am honest: I live in a small village, get along well with my neighbors. I am really considering just putting it up. On the other hand, I can’t really sleep well if someone possibly hits my car and then I have to dismantle or tear down the thing again.

Option 2 and probably the right one: Building permit. There is a simplified building permit and there is also some kind of exemption procedure?! What makes more sense or would be more appropriate? Pros and cons?

And what does this cost me? So a building permit with static calculations etc. overall approximately?

In the end, civil and structural engineering materials already cost well over €30,000. The carport itself about €17-18k.

I’m really a bit at a loss. I don’t think it will work in 6 weeks anyway. Many thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, I can only help you with the word "predulie." The correct spelling is Bredouille.

And yes, I would also say you are in a predicament. I would not build that without approval.
Once the kit is assembled, it is hardly usable in any other form in case a dismantling is necessary.
