Just saying Hello,
We are rebuilding a 1950's semi. For my sins I am the owners "retired" father and thus have been bought in as the unpaid gofer, info gatherer and fixer...
Project summary:
This a big restoration job on a 1950's built house. Plan is to add kitchen extension and loft extension and rework interior. Project includes adding 100mm exterior insulation to first floor and re-rendered outside walls, adding ~30mm interior insulation to outside ground floor walls and re-plaster. Digging out ground-floor floors, adding insulation, fitting under floor heating and re-screeding throughout. Lifting first-floor floor boards, insulating and fitting underfloor heating throughout first floor and loft extension. Replacing all windows and doors with either double or triple glazing. Insulating roof spaces to 250mm equivalent. Fitting MVHR system and an air source heat pump for heating and DHW. Rewiring will include new lighting, new rings, data cabling for a distributed network, distributed TV and sound Then new kitchen, 2 bath/shower rooms and loads of built-in furniture.
Objective is a long term, efficient comfortable home.
Current status is that we are ready to pour ground floor have most interior demolition complete and have the first floor and Loft extension ready for first fix.
Going to be very busy.
