I am converting a garage into a utility room with a shower room.
There will be 1 window for the utility room and 1 window for the shower room.
I believe the builder measured wrongly.The utility cabinet that houses the boiler now extends beyond the window space so I see 3/4 of the window from inside which is a real eye sore.
The builder claims that there is only 11/2 block space between the windows (see photo) so he can't move the window over even more.
He says if the windows are less than 11/2 blocks apart, the support will not be strong enough and constant opening and closing of either windows will likely cause cracks in the walls.
I can't find anything advising what the recommended minimum space should be between 2 windows.
Does anyone have any advise or a solution for this?
Thank you
