Default New House

Me and the Mrs purchased a house early December 2011 and after 4 months of graft we have finally moved in yesterday

We still have a few things to do;
Skirting board in the living room
Hang the internal doors
Finish of the trim in the kitchen
and a few other minor bits

It has come along way since we bought it as it still had the original 70s decor

Very nice, no double Garage though. You should have tried harder. Maybe you could make the front room smaller and extend the Garage? Worth a thought.

Looks awesome mate! Just recently bought a place too, but only managed to get two rooms done before we moved in. How long did it take you?

Work has taken about 4 month, a neighbour did 90% of it for us for next to nothing, the real cost was the full rewire and installation of central heating

A few before and work in progress pictures
