Hi,
I've seen a few extensions go up recently, all on various type (semi, detached etc.) houses. One common theme I am seeing is that the brickwork is no longer stitched/toothed to the existing brickwork and rather just butted on the end. Whereas over the years they have been done 'properly'.
Why is this? It looks ****ing awful. The absolute star of any brick house, is and should be, the brickwork.
Is it a new regulation or just laziness/money saving/combination? I am considering one myself, but not like that. No way!
Thanks
(Wasn't sure if this was better suited to General Discussion - happy for it to be moved)
