West Country new to selfbuild

[Dee J]

Hi

New here.

I'm Dee, and with my partner Anita have done all kinds of house/diy work on older properties, but are contemplating our first complete 'from plot' self-build. It's something of a relief to find an active forum resource like this. Although we are experienced to some degree in a range of practical skills, the bureaucratic hurdles of planning and some of the new build techniques are quite daunting.

As an electrician, hopefully I can contribute in my own (small) way to others challenges. 

Thanks for having us on board

Dee

I thought OnOff was becoming a plumber.

More like following in the footsteps of giants!

 

That the "plumbers" and others on here give so freely of their time & experience make the forum what it is. Worth listening as always to others who've been there before!

Western edge of Dartmoor, between Okehampton and Tavistock.

Nice - I used to live just south of Tavistock. Is the Elephant's Nest at Mary Tavy still a going concern ?

Opposite side to @Barney12 from memory !
