What is going on???

• Phew do i need some help!
  I bought a couple of small houses last year
  and had to wait untill marech this year for new rules to come into action 1 being the joining together of 4 articles into 1 so i could join the 2 little houses together.
  They were originally joined together by a wooden structure that was a little worse for wear due to woodworm this made the structure unsafe so i want to replace the wood with vegas and building blocks.
  I have been told that i need to submit plans for this and get a regestered bulder to do the work even tho i have done this work back in the uk.
  The prices i have had for this work doesn't make it worth my while having it done.
  I did as i was asked and got plans drawn up but due to a very incompetant architect,designer i don't want to go through with the plans but just want to replace what was there
  Can i do this or as my architect told me due to the plans being fiscalised i now have to go through with the plans no matter what and use a regestered builder and not do the work myself.
  Please help me someone as i'm in 2 minds wether to go back to the uk as i'm getting so many conflicting stories
  What is the law and where do i stand?
