Total House Refurbishment Diary - 3 bed semi

Hello all

Well following on from several people's good advice on here and now a week in on refurbishing a house myself and my wife bought 2 weeks ago, i thought i would start a diary to keep track of the works and hopefully offer discussions and insights to others looking to do the same.

I am a 30 year old very keen DIY-er and have decided to undertake as much work as i can on the house to save money and also to learn skills that i can use on future repairs/projects. What this means is a huge learning curve for me but one that i am enjoying.

I hope that you enjoy reading my posts.

I will post a few retrospective posts based on my work this last two weeks to bring things up to date.

Perhaps by the end of this process i can offer advice to others out there in the moneysavingexpert forum land!

    Why not create a blog. I think there are online sites that host blogs for a modest fee.
