Our neighbours have a loft dormer (10 years old), with the cheek sitting 20cm (1 tile width) away from the middle of the party wall.
We now want to convert our loft but were wondering how close we can practically go to their dormer? We were thinking 20cm in from centre of party wall (same as theirs), giving a 40cm, but do you think this would be enough space to tile and maintain the cheeks? If we leave a bigger gap it creates an almightly headache with stair location/headroom.
Any thoughts would be welcomed.
