& Other things to consider
Trace your power lines such as the ones to switches & plugs, turn off the mains then discconect them & re-wire to new locations
If the wall is papered remove paper prior to demo as you will be able to see better any hidden fixings / old works etc
Also consider the floor levels either side of the wall: are they the same? Depending on the wall / house construction you may need to leave the wall in place below the floor to hold up the joists
Where are your light fittings in the two rooms: will you need to relocate or add another to prevent a dark spot?
If the wall is a brick or block construction you will need to make good the joins to retained walls: diamond drill / cut these joints prior to demo
Ceiling height & finishes to the two rooms are they the same? You may end up re-plastering the whole new area
Skirting to the two rooms: are they the same ?
Or just get a quote from a reputable builder & let him worryHow fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't thinkComment

Over the summer, whilst some of the esteemed customers were painting & such like, I noticed a very attractive feminine version of the builder's bum.
