The rear extension I'm going to get done by the professionals... I want it up as soon as possible and I can't afford to take the time off work even if I could lay bricks fast enough. The garage I'm going to attempt myself as it's only single skin blockwork and then it's going to be rendered, so even if I do end up with terrible pointing it will be covered. I can then do it in my own time. Going to get the foundations done at the same time as the extension's though.A1ex wrote:Are you gonna get involve with any of the build work yourself?

It would need to go to the foul sewer not the soakaway though, so best to decide before that extension gets built over it!NafemanNathan wrote:Oooo, I hadn't thought of that!SpacePilotJohnLee wrote:Are you putting a drain inside like they have in America, so you can wash the car in the garage while its raining!!?
Too much run on the plot to bring drainage up from the garage towards the house, hence the soakaway. Think I'll just make do with washing the car out on the drivewurlycorner wrote:It would need to go to the foul sewer not the soakaway though, so best to decide before that extension gets built over it!NafemanNathan wrote:Oooo, I hadn't thought of that!SpacePilotJohnLee wrote:Are you putting a drain inside like they have in America, so you can wash the car in the garage while its raining!!?
