I live in a small Edwardian terraced house.
I plan to extend out the kitchen into the garden and create a small toilet/laundry room under the stairs. The underneath of the stairs adjoins the kitchen. And the plan is to take a small piece of the kitchen to create the room.
However, there is gas and electricity meters and supply and the water supply all underneath the stairs. The plan was to move the meters outside and house them in a box. The water pipe is infact lead and leads upstairs to the loft but we wanted to remove this and fit a new condensing combi boiler in the kitchen.
While we are removing the floorboard and digging up the path to remove the lead pipes and move around the gas and electricity. Is there anything else we shoudl think of doing. the soil for the toilet will not go out of the front of the house but towards the back through the kitchen to an existing sewer.
Any tips on how we can go about this cost effectively and what else we should think about doing as we are upheaving everything.
