Remortgage with Halifax

[Missc2001]

Hi does anyone know, if we take out additional loan against our mortgage for home improvements, does the bank ask for any proof? Invoices, quotes etc?

My mortgage has been with Halifax for 5 years. Last year we applied for a further advance of £12k to replace flooring and windows/doors throughout, which was from app to the money being in our bank was about 2 weeks.

They don't ask for evidence of quotes, when you apply you just state in the app £x amount for that work etc.

@LookingOptimistic thank you. We have now applied and received money 3 weeks after start of application.
