Relative has an existing porch.
- Ornate concrete arch over quarry tile floor, inset 5 large leaded stain glass windows around leaded stain glass solid oak door (inset about 2ft, never measured). Height overall about 2.9m. - Existing U value is numerically equivalent to the gov't overdraft. Under Permitted Development I believe I can... - Add porch doors - arched window & slim double doors spring loaded inwards - Subject to not touching the existing external door (new draught strip & brush letterbox) What I am unclear on is BR... - Can I laminate/laminate DG myself - or do I need to go BN or Fensa route? I want toughened re risk of "broken glass cubes" on quarry tiles. Both her knees are gone re slip risk. If I do need FENSA or BN it shoves the price up and I'll just buy her window film/panels & new thicker curtains (already got thermal linings, just the curtains are now paper thin). Sometimes I think bubble-wrap gaffa tapped to curtain hook tape would actually perform rather well as it flows better than thermal linings, but never mind :-) |
