The contractor we used has subsequently went out of business. Its a shame as he was exceptionally good.
He was from Markethill too so would have been ideal.
Hi Cluelessselfbuilder - we are now at the stage you were at last year. How have you got on with your costs? our costs have come in at £100 sq/ft and that is excluding quite a bit of flooring and only allowing £10k for kitchen. Can you recommend any contractor to do the whole package?
They now trade under the catchy name "Plumbing Supplies Lurgan"

They've a showroom upstairs and the plumbing supplies bit is downstairs. If you need assistance when you're there try to get talking to Jim, the owner.
They must've had yo change name as there looks to be a large online supplier with the old name
Interested in hearing anyone else in the same position.
With regards to building a new home, we've found that Haldane Fisher are absolutely brilliant.
Several branches across Northern Ireland and servicing parts of the UK too.
They have a section on their website specifically for self build, plus bathrooms, kitchens, and general Building supplies.
Search Haldane-Fisher on Google.
Sorry I can't post a link to their site in here. Best of luck!
