I have been getting quotes to have a substantial amount of building work done on my house. This includes -
knocking through a kitchen and utility room
relocating water cylinder
install french doors
building a lean-to cloakroom
converting a bedroom into a bathroom
locating existing bathroom.
The all inclusive quotes have been very expensive so I have decided to try and employ people directly for the various jobs. Most of it is building work and plumbing. I am using a window company for the french doors. I have a polish builder recommended by a friend, but I am going to use a local recommended plumber for the plumbing work. I intend to manage the project myself, I'm wondering if anybody has some advice or could recommend a website/book with information about how best to plan the work. I'm particularly interested in knowing the best order of work.
thanks
