DaveB Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Hello folks. My wife and I are at the very beginning of looking at buying a plot and self building. We are in West Yorkshire but would be looking at the Yorkshire Wolds around Driffield. We've spent the last 18 years renovating an agricultural barn in rural France and had intended moving there but life, kids, cancer etc have got in the way...and now Brexit... Anyway, we have a limited budget and it looks touch and go as to whether we can realise our ideas of self building. Quite fancy ICF but open to any building method. There seems a wealth of knowledge and experience on here so we'll tap into that, try and work out best and worst case finance scenarios.

joe90 Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Welcome Dave to THE forum for self builders, sorry to hear your dilemma (I had cancer twice during my build ?) there is a wealth of knowledge on all types of building methods, pros and cons so bring it on. I did my build traditionally in brick and block but was able to insulate it very well to give us a cheap home to run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
