yes they have learned a lot hopefully.. mainly that none of them ever want to be builders in future..

Thanks for kind words..at this stage we just need some encouragement to keep going and finish it, possibly the hardest 18 months of my life. I'm a plumber and solar thermal repairer by trade, but right now I am just a broken human being!

here some more recent ones...

yes we did. Hired a 9ton digger and a tipper truck for about 6 weeks. we have land at the back to dispose of the clay..

hello everyone. Here are some details on our project we started. Its a 1950 detached house 170sqm which we have extended to 240sqm with a basement and loft conversion. Just about at first fix stage now. Trying to make it as low energy and airtight as possible. Calculated heat loss so far is around 6kW. Apart from a few concrete pump drivers and a crane driver we have done all the work ourselves - me, the wife and two nearly-grown up kids..
