Hello DIYnot ! This is my first post here, actually my first in any DIY forums. I will start first by presenting myself, my name is Sergiu, I'm 20 years old and live in Romania, Bucharest.
I've recently been given an abandoned house to take care of in which i would be living in in the near future. The house is in pretty bad shape and I want to repair/rebuild it (it's one wish off my "Before I die"-to-do list). Some info on the house, it's brickmade, it's only groundfloor, i think it has 3-4 rooms, it has no floors but dirt to stand on, the garret(attic?) is in pretty bad shape and i didn't see any beams, i think the roof sits only on the room walls. And, of course, it rains in the house, the roof is in bad shape.
I can provide tons of pictures of all angles and all details that i can possibly give, but before i do that I would like to ask first if you'd have patience helping me out because I am inexperienced, I am not familiar with any speciality terms in English nor is my english so swell, as i've probably made some grammar mistakes already. These being the cons about me, the pros may be that I am persistent, eager to learn, i'm more or less a fast learner and I have motivation.
Thus, DIYnot can you help a lad like me rebuild his broken down house?
Yours truly,
Sergiu.
