Oh Boy! This is where I come into my own. A few years ago my daughter was working in England and I was driving her small red hot pulsar to the shopping centre to buy coffee (six cans of 500gms). I saw toilet paper was on special so I bought 480 rolls. The only problem was there was not enough rom for the toilet paper and the two dogs, so I left the dogs at the shops and took the paper home and then went back for the dogs. When we had used all that toilet paper I kept my eyes open for when they were on special again and bought 600 rolls - no problem this time because I did not take the dogs. Next time it was 720 rolls and two trips to the shop to pick them up. It should have been 840 rolls the last time but a sudden burst of common-sense saw me buy only 480 and I am regretting it already because more than half of them have gone. So 960 here I come.

it's difficult and very expensive to remove a whole wall and add an extensions to make one new giant room as the roof, walls, floor and ceiling may also need to be rebuilt and costs depends on if you want to remove the whole wall or can add an extensions with doorways between new and old rooms without removing the whole wall. .post a plan of the existing house and a description of what you are aiming to achieve

Hi, this is like asking "how long is a piece of string". Porcelain tops are not priced by the square meter but instead on how much material is required, which type of Vasari you select and how much labour is involved in the fabrication and installation. Every kitchen benchtop is different and needs to be priced accordingly. I would suggest you talk to your local Cabinetmaker experienced in Porcelain tops or your local specialist Stone Fabricator for a quote. Hope this helps, Malcolm.

Thank you everyone. I clearly have no idea with what I’m doing..hence the professional The reason I want to raise the roof is to be in line with a cathedral ceiling. I want to renovate my kitchen to be one large space. See attached pics.
