  • This week's four figure surprise.
    Where the extension meets the house at the roof point is coming away.

  • It never rains but it pours.

  • I feel for you, you've really had rotten luck with this house. Is there a solution that doesn't require rebuilding the extension?

  • Christ.

    Did your surveyor have a cane and dark glasses?

  • We had a similar thing when the plumbers came to put a boiler on a wall. Underneath 4 alternating of layers of tiles and plaster board you could move the wall with your hand.

    Has made us think about a two story extension like the one upthread which most people hated but we quite like.

    Careful, it's only Monday.

    I'm reading the work you've done with a mixture of admiration for it being done 'right', and trepidation having recently bought a semi detached nearby in not dissimilar condition, complete with some old bomb damage.

  • Had that with the back wall of our place - Victorian mid-terrace. It was hidden behind wooden panelling in the kitchen. No footings on back wall so complete rebuild - happy days :(
