Hi all
We have a kitchen that looks like this in one corner:
We basically don't like it and want the wall to be square. This would allow us much more flexibility when we get the kitchen replaced in terms of layout, as well as an extra couple of square metres of space.
I know very little about this, but it doesn't look like a massive job to square off that wall to me.
This is what it looks like from the outside:
Could we in theory (subject to structural assessment etc.) build a brick wall to fill in that gap, then knock down the internal wall, thereby squaring off the end?
This section is an old outhouse that was incorporated into the main part of the house back in the day.
The only complication I can see is that the kitchen wastes to a drain on the left of the alcove (not quite visible).
We'll obviously get a builder out to come and assess, but I was just wondering if you guys had any idea of how much this might cost and whether it's as simple as I'm assuming?
Many thanks.
