Doing the brickwork is one thing, and not easy by itself, but attaching the rest of the house to the brickwork is another matter. Even correctly building a pier would be good to see.

Cavity flashing wont stop this???
Yes cavity flashing will stop it. But it will be diverted inside you extension at ground level.

But if I don't do the install as per manufacturers reccomendations I automatically void my warranty.?????
Bricks, Are you suggesting a roof company is going to warranty against cavity moisture. I dont think so.

Fellas, My 2c worth.
Bricks you're wrong, Pawnhead you're right.

Due to the fact the this topic is so advanced please provide some proof via weblinks etc as to pawnys method being the only method. I have more than proved that my method is accepted at least by some industry leading companies in this country. Your opinion has already been proved wrong in previous posts.
Hmm, Pawnies method is the propper method. Yes your method is adopted in this country, but only by people that are ill informed.

My only concern about retro cavity flashing is removing the bricks and retaining strength in the wall after. I have not said that cavity flashing is not used, not acceptable, or that it is not done as a retro fit option.
I have not found any proof of cavity flashing as the only option for retro fit- which is what we are asking here.

Bricks,
There are no problems with removing bricks and reinstating the bricks, check this link out for some further info

In order to prove me wrong: you need to find evidence that the saw cut method is illegal, not widely used, and not reccomended by some authority on the matter. Only australian sites will do as our climate is unique from the rest of the world and their reg's dont apply here.

Bricks, I dont believe saw cutting would be illegal. I think your method is sufficient and the best way of doing it (given the simplest) if you were connecting a roof and the wall was to remain external (eg a carport or balcony).

Bricks, dont fight it, I think the argument is over.
Cheers,
