Picked up keys yesterday to new place. All very exciting etc; everything needs doing for which I’ve already had some cracking advice on here…except I now realise that the place is begging for an extension at the back. Main benefit being giving much needed extra space to the bathroom, providing somewhere to hide the boiler which is currently in a gopping position, and bonus being a larger living room.
Plus, as the place also needs full renovation inside, seems sensible to get a messy extension done now.
Problem is, I doubt I can afford it, but it’s also a bit short sighted to not have it done.
I’m happy to get quotes in, but I don’t want to be wasting trademen’s time if it’s nowhere within budget – so any ideas how much the rough costs would be of extending out, in line with the neigbour’s roof line, up to the closest wall of the extension already in place? (costs of moving boiler and internals to not be included).
Also, if there anything I can do to cut costs, seriously! (windows will be new)
West Yorks btw; thanks.
Extending exactly in same fashion as my creamy neighbour.

Along this distance.
..and up that high..
Some awful boiler/cabinet postioning on neigbour-side wall of extension
..and a random funny picture of what happened when I peeled away some wallpaper, at which point I left the house and came back to my rented place, with genuine fear..
