Folks,
I am tossing around ideas about how to remodel the master bath in my house. The present bathroom is small, 5.5' x 7'. I thought to bump out that piece of the exterior wall about 2.5' to permit a 4' x 5.5' shower. The bump out would be on the south gable end of a brick ranch on a crawl space What are the pros and cons to this approach? Would I have to mimic the crawlspace for this bumped out space? What sort of roof has to go over it? Do I need gutters for such a small extension? Any thoughts about the cost of such a bump out?
Many thanks in advance for your thoughts.
John
