Build a terraced end house with an additional unit (GÜ) on your own

Junk, all junk!

Unfortunately not, I regularly declutter and do my personal challenge

So... away from sheet metal and towards real problems.

I ran into my middle house neighbor this morning since he had an on-site appointment. He will probably start in two weeks and by the way: "we will get you."

However, he apparently did not realize that we also have a say in this. And that his structural engineer might also need to get our civil engineering plans was also unknown to him - this will be interesting.
