Tyke2 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 (edited) Hi All I'm looking at doing my second self build. Which will be a traditional new build. I did a listed barn conversion 18 years ago. I must hold my hands up to a bit more knowledge than that though as I worked in technical depts. in some of the national house builders for 20 years. Most knowledge is of traditional brick/block construction, plus a bit of timber frame. I have done pretty much every site abnormal known though. I have precious little practical experience in renewables, but did a little PV roofing about 15 years ago. From experience more innovation is done by the self build "crowd" than any of the national builders! Edited September 5, 2018 by Tyke2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
