my house improvements

This should be an ongoing thread.

For best results, click "reverse order", then it will play the right way around!!

So far, i've stripped the living room, and had electricians to rewire, and fixed a pinhole leak in the heating pipes under the landing floor.

More to come. Next updates hopefully will be plastered (skimmed) lounge, finished sockets and data outlets, and carpets throughout.

Hi,

The lights are looking good. Especially the spots in the ceiling. Your either an electrician, or panic'd at the site of all those wires. I wouldnt know where to start.

Keep up the good work!

Cheers for the comment, I had the rewiring done by electricians. I originally specc'd for just a lighting rewire, but after all my "extras" (socket here, socket there etc), it ended up being nearly a total rewire. I am glad I didnt attempt it myself, to be honest. I dont have a wall chaser, and would have felt **** about wrecking the place like they did. I'd have been at it for months with a hammer and chisel

Looking good!

Are you doing it all yourself, or do you have help?
