  • Is it worth expanding a half width conservatory with standard extension

    Our new house has a conservatory across half of the house, which is about 5m deep. It is in good condition. Ideally I would like to have a full width extension. Is it worth trying (or even possible) to salvage the conservatory, incorporating it into an extension across the rest of the house? Or is it easier/cheaper just to take it all down and start from scratch?

    How close can I build to my neighbours boundary

    I'm thinking about extending out a little to the side of my house, but I'm a bit unclear on how far we can get to the boundary (where the fence is). Is the main thing that it can't extend beyond the ground floor and that the drainage needs to remain on our side?
