  1. Mine not like that . Just a pointer to the original house - not the new build . But it listed the new build name etc correctly .
  2. The actual point shown is next door I.e the original house before the build . I assumed accuracy was an issue - the address listed was correct though
  3. Yeah married …. For now ! 🤣 . I suspect as it’s taken years just to deal with land registry issues it’s all in my name ( just to simplify ) . I need to check with land registry ; if no SWMBO - add her on .
  4. Because it’s a self build that’s why I was confused . I split the land ( which I think is in my name ) . Therefore the build is solely in my name ? . Should I change that to joint ?? I.e in event of death for one of us …
  5. Yeah it shows on there . So that means the land is registered correctly ? But who owns the house ? Same as land registry ? I.e whose name is on that
  6. So I split the land for the build some years ago . Is that sufficient??? . Guess perhaps it is in the registry … 🤔
  7. What do I do about this ? I assume there’s no land registry entry as build hasn’t transferred ownership … Who owns our house ? 🤣 Should I do something here ? - best in both names ? ( me and SWMBO not me and mistress ) . Only just thought of this issue !!
  8. They seem to want unsurprisingly the bigger bills i.e. insulation and of course walk on glazing!!! Unfortunately their website only allows 20 uploads and some of my single invoices are in fact multiple pages. So I'm stuck until a human looks at this.
  9. Crumbs ! . 2 days later after online submission already had an email from them ! Asking for copies of certain invoices . The largest vat one is £200 , smallest £8 …. 😝
  10. I think you only get one bite of the cherry I.e can only submit once and that’s it . Actually submitted mine online today - sure I saw wording to that effect .
  11. Thats still work ! . Don’t you like my spray ?
  12. Possibly I guess . Get costings for all options . Assume the ‘less light’ if smaller not a major issue ?
  13. Erm . Well ! I may have (expletive deleted)ed up a bit with this on my build . It’s a long torturous tale of woe . Less than 700 then alter it .
  14. From the reviews I e read you have to ‘apply’ it - that sounds like work ! . My spray = no effort
  15. Yes - I am VERY experienced in this type of situation …
  16. No , you try mine !
  17. This stuff is MAGIC for that . Best I’ve found . Spray , leave , repeat
  18. No ! Just (expletive deleted)ing irritating full stop !
  19. I’m a perfectionist also ( not ) . You’re only 3 yrs in - that’s toddler stage . Go another 9 and you’ll be up with me 👍
  20. I’ll show you everything !! Are you ready for that though ???
  21. No - even more as I have my extensive experience to share
  22. It’s been a long 12 yrs 🤣 I use to frequent ebuild ( I think that’s what it was called ) even before my build commenced . When that disappeared I did worry ! . But found the resurrection in buildhub . I knew I couldn’t do the build on my own . A non standard design with no help . I assumed ( incorrectly ) bco would be on my back with a self build and ‘help’ me … the opposite occurred . Everything in life I do on my own ( no rude jokes ) ; I can learn what I need to get the job done ( this does not make me an expert ! ) . Buildhub has been invaluable - I built a house via the internet . I think that’s (expletive deleted)ing amazing tbh ! So for all the noobs with no experience etc I do have advice ! You are either cash rich and time poor or the opposite. Cash rich you can pay others to accelerate your build . Time rich you do it yourself . As I am self employed and didn’t have the cash ( no (expletive deleted)er is going to give me a self build mortgage ) then time is my friend . Remove stress points . A self build mortgage will put you under massive pressure - to release the next payment . Don’t rent temporarily when you can buy . To partially fund our build we sold our house and bought a shitty flat . This took any rental issues off the table and equity appreciation allowed the crap flat to add to the finance of the build once sold . We then lived on site - a cash saving for sure at the expense of ‘normality ‘ . By not being tied to a loan nor tied to time I (expletive deleted)ed about for a decade and got it done . Stress existed - but it was rare . This is the way ! I still have a hundred bits to fanny around with . Remove pressure , remove stress . Appreciate everyone’s in a different situation . But don’t let the build destroy you . It’s a bitch and you are the master ( bit of bdsm there for my followers ) . Ask for help on the forum always . (expletive deleted) things up - so what ! . Waste 1000’s on a balls up - so what . Haven’t got a clue ? - so what . Plan a strategy!
  23. Look what I got in the email !!! Bco can (expletive deleted) off planning can (expletive deleted) off most of all neighbors can (expletive deleted) right off “To fight is foolish , to win is super mofo “ Pocster 2024
  24. I have in some situations mains and cat cables running together . No interference or issues with this that I can detect .
