Hey im looking to convert my outhouse which is attached to my kitchen, need a few pointers of advise ok here goes
The outhouse itself is only single brick with a an angled /sloped tiled roof, with triangle beams as support, the room is split in two , one a coal shed and one a wash house, but i am going to knock the seperating walls down to make it bigger, just curious as to if i do this will my roof collapse down, there doesnt seem to any major supports other than the perimeter wall which i wont be touching
Ok question number 2, im looking to plaster the whole room out and lay carpets, can anyone give me advise on this can i apply plaster directly to the single brick wall , or will i have to damp proof then board it then plaster it,
ok lastly, the floor could i just lay carpet and underlay directly to the concrete which is the floor or will this cause problems, will i have to coat the floor in damp proofing paint, if it exists?
Hope someone can help me cheers
