Hi Derek,

The glazing to the roof and the door/ windows were around £6,500+VAT.

So i would estimate the roof, which was approx. 3.5 x 1m to be £2,500 of that figure.

A larger area as you suggested might be therefore in the order of £3,000 to £4,000+VAT as an estimate.

Hi Ellie, Depending on the existing walls and footings of the extension, it would be likely in excess of £10k. This type of alteration may also require planning permission, especially if you are in a conservation area. If you are based in London I'd be happy to provide a free face to face consultation at your property to discuss your project. Regards Bernard xami.co.uk 07952965033

Thank you At No 19 and OnePlan for your photos. Great food for thought... What would you do? A. Keep the wall as it is and opt for a freestanding vanity unit and a normal toilet. B. Have the vanity as above and have a half wall approx 75-100mm on the middle wall between the windows and normal toilet. C. Build out a 250mm stud wall throughout and have a concealed cistern toilet, recessed mirror cabinet but have a freestanding bath that’s snug against the walls.

I agree with all the advice above and would add, when you have the plans, consider going to see your neighbours in person, (especially the one which will be most affected). Do this before the plans are submitted, or if you have a diplomatic architect, ask them to speak to your neighbours to just talk them through what you plan to do. It usually goes down better than the planning consultation letter just landing on their laps. If they ask, don't feel you have to agree to any concessions there and then, tell them that you don't have any expertise but "of course you can discuss it with your architect". Leave the architect to handle anything contentious as you want to remain on good terms with your neighbour and the architect won't have anything to loose as they don't have to live next door to them. When it comes to the building work, ensure that there is excellent insulation in the roof. There are now super thin insulations that are effective (if you need it to be thin) but go for more than the regs require. Also ensure that the roofing is done superbly, good flashing details, adequate falls etc as this is what lets down roof terraces. Ensure that there is power, water (power safely near the water for irrigation if that is what you are going to have) and if you need it check your internet signal and provide a booster (perhaps in the hall) if it is not good enough. This summer has shown that outside workspace can be a real benefit. When it comes to the finish material, consider Millboard (https://millboard.co.uk/samples) I used the 'enhanced grain' finish. I have used it on three jobs and I am very happy with this relatively lightweight, low maintenance, good quality (not cheap) product. Ensure that there is access to inspect the roof should you need to and clear leaves (it is amazing how many will find their way in-between even tiny gaps) You will probably need less light than you might think (consider your contribution to light pollution). Consider if you can have solar powered lights and water capture for watering plants and avoid outdoor speakers as these really will annoy your neighbours. I love roof terraces as they are usable for so much of the year, often warmer than a lower garden in the winter. Good luck with it. Regina.
