Hi all, sorry me again with more kitchen renovation questions.


Just wondering...why, on nearly every side return extension project that I've seen, is the kitchen kept in the pre-existing space and the dining table put under the new glazed roof? Has anyone swapped them around and put the kitchen under the glass roof in the new bit, and the dining table in the old space? I think I'm missing the logic, which I'm sure is there somewhere. Is it that the side return bit tends to be narrower, and so better for a table? Is it because it's nice to eat under glass? We were thinking of doing it the other way, to cook under glass, but are we missing something?


Any architects out there who can spare a minute to explain? Or people who've had the work done, and can tell me the benefits from firsthand experience of living with it? As ever, I would be very grateful.

One solution is to use a pop-up worktop mounted extractor...

    • I am trying to find out about people's experiences of the 4+ and 7+ assessments. I am a teacher and have a wealth of experience tutoring for theses assessments (including my own son), but it's always good to keep on top of things as they always make tweaks to them. TIA! 
    • "You have no idea why"   To be fair Sue, it's blindingly obvious to anyone who has a conversation with anyone who isn't a Corbyn supporter. And even some who liked Corbyn (like me initially) found him somewhat flaky even at his most popular But let's say you are right and I have NO idea why anybody might not vote for him. They still didn't vote for him. He lost two elections. The second one badly (and strongly predicted but the stubborn old goat wouldn't budge so we we were stuck with Johnson and another 3 million PMs in the 5 years that followed) So even with ZERO evidence, we have our eyes and ears and brains But we do have evidence   https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/27022-their-own-words-why-voters-abandoned-labour
    • As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
