Kara Christine Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Hi everyone I'm about to start a Victorian semi extension which I'll be project managing amid full time work and two kids because I've not got quite enough funds to make this 2 year hell hole of planning rejection and setbacks before we've even started. Can't believe I've found you lot, a wealth of information and U-values advice!!!!! I'm absolutely terrified but sure I'll learn a lot along the way, including how to lay the 65sq metres of reclaimed parquet.....

Ferdinand Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 (edited) Welcome. A semi extension is not a *huuuge* project, and others have done similar so advice and experience are around - so relax (a little), for a bit. Recommend vodka and chocolate ? .

Don’t know about terrified but I paid a visit to a house in the process of being built today and the smell of new wood set something off in me that my hubby is now terrified off ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
