Last weekend we had the structural engineer out checking the ground. Having dug the pits the structural engineer has confirmed that the ground is suitable for building on
We now have planning permission - Scottish Borders Council Planning Reference Number 16/00648/PPP.
Scottish Power wires still to move but we're hopeful that this will happen within the next few months...
Shortlisting main contractors at the moment. Should have tender documents ready to send out by the end of April.
Quietly hoping we'll be on our way with the build by October....................watch this space.

We have just submitted our dream home to planning. All being well we should have a decision in February.
Still haven't been given a date by Scottish Power...
05.08.17 - we have FINALLY received our quote for the under-grounding of the electricity wires! 8 weeks and we'll have a date for when the work will commence! Horrah!!!!
22.06.17 - Scottish Power have come to look at putting power lines running across our plot underground and also at moving an H pole. 2 weeks and we should have a couple of drawings sent to us so we can make a decision as to how we'll proceed.
