Wasn't really after an outcome just information really as it hasn't been built to last long term and obviously the landlady doesn't seem to want to fix it even though she has a duty of care. I don't really want to go down the route of a neighbour dispute in case it costs too much, I guess I...

It's not open to the house, the back door opens into it.

Just to clarify, the lean to is used for a washing machine/tumble dryer.

i've got some pictures on my phone so will log on here with my phone and post them.

Evening all, I have a bit of a pickle to do with a neighbours lean to and i'm after a bit of advice if possible. I have lived in my house for 8 years, it's a 2 up 2 down terrace where everyone has a single storey extension for their kitchens and bathrooms. My neighbours house, to the right as...

Morning, tried taking some more pictures of the neighbours porch, apologies on the quality, she is in so count get right it to photograph. The render looks quite damaged in the 1st pic which is halfway up the wall, I do have a small yellow mark pretty much where that is but I assume that hadn't...

Just got home from work so will take some after I get up. Her house doesn't have a downpipe as in our terrace there's a downpipe every 3 houses or so, I have one but it's the opposite side of the house.

I have told her about it as the other week we had some bad thunderstorms and it was gushing over her guttering into the open bit by the porch. I had a look earlier and I know ow you can get a membrane of sorts that can be plastered over if you have a problem like this, are they any good? Was...

hi there, Our house doesn't have a suspended floor, it is all concrete due to the house getting flooded some years ago (before we moved in). The only bit that isn't concrete, if my memory serves me right, is the bit by the front door which would have been the old porch. Basically when we moved...

Hi there, sorry for the delay in getting the pictures. The staining is on the replastered section, it was hacked right back to brick first of all as it had completely blown, I presume because that section is open to the elements on the other side.

Hi vinn, will grab some pics. The walls are solid, as for the floors I'm not 100% sure but if I remember correctly when we did the floor in our hallway the bit by the door had old tiles and underneath was just the ground, no concrete or anything which the rest of the house has.

Morning all, I hope this might be in the right section but if not please can a mod move it. Earlier in the year we had a lot of replastering done due to it being blown, all part of a big redecorating project. Part of this was done in our hallway near our front door. I've noticed recently...

We are in the process of redecorating most of our house. One annoying problem we've got is mould and blown plaster in the hallway by the front door on 1 side. Unfortunately this side has an open porch on the other side, it is the only house in the terrace to have this as everyone else has moved...

Hi there, current extension is 5m out from the house, we live in a terrace. All of the houses are 2 up 2 downs with extensions for the kitchen and bathroom. extending the width to the border is about an extra 1m in width. I don't think we would look to extend the full 5 metres out...

We currently have a single storey extension on the back of our house, which doesn't go all the way up to our neighbours boundary. If we want to extend across, apart from a party wall agreement (i guess), would there be any possible building regs that need to be adhered to, or would we need...

Hi ree, no air brick higher up, I have no idea if there was in the past though. The main floor does have a waterproof membrane underneath as saw it when I was digging out the fireplace. There is no wood on the inside of the fireplace, only the bit on the side at the front. The front of the...

Hi Ree, Thank you for your reply. There are no salts whatsoever on the front of the chimney breast. There is no front hearth under the carpet, there may have been in the past, but we have concrete floors whereas they used to be wooden. There is no airbrick to the outside, I think there...

Here are a couple more pics Seems to rotate them for some reason so apologies
