The basic requirements of each slab are: Outdoor Access to spot is slightly intricate for a truck but still achievable Each slab needs to support around 2.7-3 tonnes The area of each slab is probably around 5 m^2
I would like to enlarge the living room area and tear down a couple of walls as well as build new ones. Bathrooms would be halfed in order to make space for a larger walk in closet and a guest toilet.
