Hi,

 

Thanks for access to the group.

Congrats - went to see their show house, looked very nice and almost a one stop shop. Love to the see construction photos if you're around onsite next year!

Fáilte go dtí an forum!

 

I'm quite a fan of scanhome (I assume that's the company you're using?)

 

Which model have you opted for?

Thanks, The show house looks good alright. We'll probably have the obligatory instagram account for the build. there's a 12 lead time on them so we'll be waiting for a while.

Congratulations on getting planning. That's a lovely design. 

 

12 months will pass quickly and you can have lots done before then. 

 

I would get cracking on a shed or garage if you can. You can get all your water and electricity into the shed and take it from there to the house. 

 

Likewise you can get your connection to the sewage or else septic tank done. 

 

You could order and store a kitchen/bathrooms,tiles, appliances etc too. 

 

Have you done the passive or super passive and what heating are you opting for?
