Russ P Posted July 22, 2017 Posted July 22, 2017 Hi all complete newbie taken on a late 1800's cottage renovation project
Gone West Posted July 22, 2017 Posted July 22, 2017 Hi Russ, welcome to the forum and good luck with the project.
Russ P Posted July 22, 2017 Author Posted July 22, 2017 Strangely I'm 18 months in and only just come across this forum ?? bathroom has been moved from downstairs to upstairs giving me the option to remove a load bearing wall downstairs and make the kitchen twice the size. Also done main bedroom. Kitchen floor is coming up week begging 21st august and underfloor heating being installed! Will post some pictures when I get chance
Onoff Posted July 22, 2017 Posted July 22, 2017 Welcome, it's good 'ere! I've a couple of 1800s terraced cottages. All slate damp courses, suspended timber ground floors, lath & plaster, lime mortar and airbricks! You sometimes have to be sensitive to all that applying "modern" techniques. But this is THE place to ask. 1
