Can you put bleach on aluminum?

Bleach will not cause immediate corrosion or bubbling on aluminum foil or an aluminum surface. The bleach is not strong enough to eat away at the metal. However, bleach can change the color of the metal. After some time, the aluminum surface may darken or even turn black.

Aluminum

Aluminum is a lightweight metal that is commonly used in household applications. Contractors use aluminum siding to protect the exterior of homes. Consumers use aluminum foil to wrap up and store perishable goods. Some electronics contain aluminum components. Pots and pans are commonly manufactured using aluminum.

Bleach

Bleach is an oxidizing chemical that is used to disinfect and also to whiten fabrics. It is commonly used in household applications to clean white clothes and to disinfect surfaces. Bleach can be harsh when used at full strength, which is why it can cause permanent damage to fabrics if used improperly.

Considerations

In certain cases, such as cleaning aluminum siding, using a detergent mixture containing a small portion of bleach diluted with water may not cause any damage to the surface. However to be safe, clean a small portion of the item with your cleaning mixture before washing the entire area. Do not allow the mixture to set on the surface for too long—rinse it thoroughly with water after cleaning.

Do you need permission to convert outbuildings?

Going ahead without this may result in a fine or imprisonment, or both.

New rules regarding whether or not you can extend or add to your home without having to apply for planning permission for an outbuilding came into force on 1 October 2008. The New limits and conditions for what is allowed without the need for planning permission apply largely to the dimensions of the proposed addition, its position in relation to the house and its proximity to the boundaries of the property. Under the new regulations constructing an outbuilding that is not within designated land is considered permitted development, not requiring an application for planning permission, providing it meets the following limits and conditions: An outbuilding can not be constructed on land forward of a wall forming the principal elevation. Outbuildings and garages to be single storey with maximum eaves height of 2.5 metres and maximum overall height of four metres with a dual pitched roof or three metres for any other roof. Maximum height of 2.5 metres in the case of a building, enclosure or container within two metres of a boundary of the curtilage of the dwellinghouse.No verandas, balconies or raised platforms. No more than half the area of land around the "original house"* would be covered by additions or other buildings. In National Parks, the Broads, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and World Heritage Sites the maximum area to be covered by buildings, enclosures, containers and pools more than 20 metres from house to be limited to 10 square metres. On designated land buildings, enclosures, containers and pools at the side of properties will require planning permission.
