Can anyone advise?
We have a heavily underpinned house with an underpinned extension part of which is properly built with a proper (concrete tiled?) roof and the other part is an ugly aged UPVC conservatory with a plastic roof. As far as I understand from the underpinning drawings, the footings are quite adequate to make the whole thing a proper extension across the back- this needs checking, and the conservatory has dwarf walls which can stay. There is a suspended concrete slab floor through the original house kitchen, conservatory and extension, all done at the same time.
Is there any reason we can't just get new windows and doors on the conservatory bit and put a nice new tiled roof with Velux windows right across the whole of the back? What are the building regs/ planning/ structural implications if any? Does a proper roof need brick built corners to support it or can it go on an aluminium framed double or triple glazed replacement to the current conservatory windows and doors.
Thanks
