Bit of background:
We stay in a semi-detached with up and downstairs.
We had a doorway knocked into an outside supporting wall so we could
access an already in place extension. It was more convenient with this
layout.
We submitted plans for the work but for the life of me I can't find them
and the building clerk is coming next week to inspect it (hopefully grant
a certificate)
The work was carried out 2 years ago so its all very hazy the actual
details.

What I'm looking to know is, is there a guide on how much the concrete
lintel should overhang the brickwork below? Given it is the ground floor
of the outside wall.
They told me just to take pictures at the time as that should suffice.

Cheers.


Thanks guys. The BCO arrived and granted the certificate.
He just had a quick squint of the "blurry" pictures with the measuring tape
against the lintels.

Thanks again.
