Thinking of buying a house, it has a bay window going all the way to the roof (i.e. ground floor and first floor) and it has a pitched roof joiined with the main roof, i.e. not flat roof.
The bay window is currently made of plastic and looks to be about 20 or more years old and looks decrepid. If I buy the house, I'm thinking of having a new bay front built from bricks or blocks (house is construced with coursed stone - or possibly rubbled stone but I think it is coursed).
So I'd need a foundation built and then have to decide on the method of construction.
Does anyone know how much this would cost in South Wales?
What are my options for method of construction, would there be an inner and outer skin with insulation in between, or would the nature of a bay window (narrow pillars) mean that double skin/insulation would not be possible?
I suppose building it in the traditional way with stone and sand stone would be the most expensive method. (the house would not be worth this sort of expense on appearance.)
Looking forward to your replies...
