Anyone Live In A House Thats Not Quite Finished

elsien

I've had a semi done bathroom for 2 years now - it has a new bathroom suite, lots of pipes that need boxing in, huge holes in the floor (with knackered floorboards and a loose square of lino) and dying plaster and lath ceiling, and missing plaster all over the place. And I've just pulled all the plaster off one wall to leave bare bricks which looks as lovely as you can imagine.
Mainly because a) I'm a diy disaster, b) next doors shower leaked and soaked the wall but I didn't realise till the plaster starting falling off and c) I keep spending the money to have it done on holidays instead.

Can anyone guess what my new year's resolution might be?:rotfl:

I lived in my last house over 25yrs and think i only got it finished when i'd decided to sell and knew there'd be prospective buyers coming around.

Im unhappy with my kitchen, two lots of wall sockets wonky and not replastered in. (this was left due to electrician not coming back). Ive tried doing it myself but made a mess.

The big thing in my kitchen is the plumbing for water pipes to waste and tap and central heating. They are loose and the wall underneath is not complete. Some of the pipes are so very old. Just want the wall behind fixed and them fixed to the wall as they clatter when central heating comes on.:mad:

There's a couple of jobs that I have been intending to do for the last 30 years or more. They just don't annoy me enough yet.
