Finished mines a couple of motnhs ago, did it and garage at same time, took in a builder, sparkie and plumber, me and me dad did the rest of it.

Planning took a good while but from me digging out the founds to moving in was 6 months to the day and that was fully decorated.

Best tip, by a paslode nail gun, saves loads of pratting around with dwangs etc and machine for plasterboard screws and some extending props, me and my missus plasterboarded the whole place without any hassles.

Spend a bit of time considering where everything is going to go, boiler, water tanks/cylinders, U/Floor heating manifolds etc, we fussed over this and even where sink drains etc would exit walls and the like and it has paid dividends.

My mate has jsut been caught out as he's fitting megaflow cylinder and didn't allow for the size of it in his utility room and cannot get his units to fit.

Best thing you can do house wise and very very rewarding.

got loads of pics if you need to see anything
