Having bought a house with a building plot conveniently next door, we’ve had architects draw plans and started the build this week.
We built a new house a few years ago and it was nothing but hassle, we swore then that we’d never be so foolish again … so here we are being equally as foolish once again.
I’ll post pics as the build progresses … you’ll note my location is Slovakia so the methods and sequence of the build may be a little different to that in U.K. and elsewhere … it might interest someone … it might not
The builders have levelled the house footprint and dug the footings this week, added steel (after a passing Geologist suggested so to ensure there were no subsidence issues further down the road - there was a thin layer maybe 20cm deep of Sandy loam about a metre down), suitable access tubes for water, waste and electric and finally poured 4 mixers worth (36m3) of concrete … there’s no going back now
