... The Conservatory re-work project has a green light.
Here is what will be done:
Roof off and deconstruct back to just the standing window frames.
All areas in Blue get the chop and are to be replaced with studwork walling.
Double thickness "ring-beam" on top of new stud walls.
Create 2 mansard roof shaped gable ends, one bolted to the rear wall of the house, the other at the other end of the conservatory.
Open-trusses all along the new roof (to form a vaulted ceiling), and a more or less flat 8-foot wide platform on top.
Skylight to be inserted.
Fully insulated in the stud walls, new LED downlighters in the ceiling.
Internal long "feature wall" to be faced with reclaimed scaffold boards (suitably pressure washed and then burnt with a blowtorch).
Externals of the stud walls to be exterior Plywood with expanded metal skin and cement render (to match house).
Footprint, max height and eaves height to remain the same.
Wish me luck!
