• Will you really see the cladding on the roof and the side at the same time?

    Don't you have a strip of buff bricks on the other side? So two strips might just match

    And lastly for some more uninformed opinion I'm sure you don't need - whats the logic behind the grey wall with the buff bricks inside? Surely buff throughout is aesthetically better.

  • I'm not sure I follow. It's hard to describe this stuff in text - that's why the WhatsApp group with my builder and architect is always such a head-scratcher. We want grey bricks to match the grey wood, but next door wants buff for party wall - but is happy with grey for the garden wall bit. It's all baffling. I think the zig-zag thing would be noisy, and the whole point of the extension's look is to be really smooth and not show how it's constructed.

    Not what you want to hear, but if the rest of the house is buff then I can see why your neighbour doesn't want a random parapet of modern grey bricks.

    Another option is to put a peice of wood over it and grow a climber up it.
