Mubbashshir Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 (edited) Hi Guys, I am planning to do 4*4 rear extension with ensuite done at rear of my house in York. Planning permission done and Building control is also approved. Can you refer any good builder or experience person with relevant qualifications to pick up on this project. We can plan the project and go for agreement before the project commencment. Attached is the rough drawing. Note the walls measurment have to corrected to 325.

DevilDamo Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 How are you providing ventilation to the Study? Am quite surprised BC are happy with the narrow brick returns too. Search for recommendations via local Facebook groups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnMo Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 Missing some details Floor insulation - seems to be zero Wall build up details missing Ventilation missing You seem to have a shower with zero space to stand to use it. Why? Even if you did it would soak the toilet etc. if you are doing a wet room where is the details of how you propose to keep the water out out of the structure?

Jilly Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 Apologies, on Build Hub (BH) we usually critique plans for each other, and give you some ideas to improve the layout or help you save money before you get too far along. On BH we don't get involved in recommending builders etc. It's very difficult. The usual advice is to get personal recommendations and also get 3 quotes and speak to the builder, there can be a big variation. Get a feel for if they understand your requirements and seem honest. They might give good advice. If I'm reading it correctly, why not remove the wall between the proposed room and the study? It would make a nicer room with a window. Do you mean ensuite? That usually means a shower/toilet leading off a bedroom. It looks to have been drawn like a downstairs loo with no shower as noted by @JohnMo. Do you really need the door next to the loo? If you use the French doors to go in and out, and got rid of the door, you would have room for a shower. Will it be used as an annexe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mubbashshir Posted October 19 Author Share Posted October 19 (edited) My plan is if possible instead of going wall to wall as shown in the drawings. I can move 17.5 mm inside to build the wall on neighbours side. Please refer to attached diagram. My question is will this compromise structure stability of new extension as the foundation of extension may not exactly align with existing buildings. Also we have to join new extension wall with existing building structure by removing some bricks and adding some steel mesh to attach both walls any advise on best approach will help.
