Week 3 done

Itโ€™s going to be tight!
We need to finish the underfloor plumbing and get the floor back in for the plasterer tomorrow, which then needs to dry in time for the tiler on Friday ๐Ÿฅต

The last 2 weeks have been pretty intense! ๐Ÿ”จ

We have replaced the old boiler with a new combi boiler, removed all the old doors and carpet upstairs, cleared out the garden, cleared out the rooms upstairs, knocked down a wall, replaced the old lighting with new, started prep work on the stairs and walls ready for painting and carpets, got rid of the old artex with new plastered ceilings, met with builders and landscapers for future projects, and Iโ€™ve started the prep work in the garage which I hope to finish today ๐Ÿ–Œ๏ธ

Then itโ€™s onto the bits that are more exciting for me - choosing the paints, design, furniture, the finishing touches and the pretty bit of decorating! ๐Ÿค

We have 2 weeks until we move in, hopefully weโ€™ll finish upstairs by then๐Ÿ™

A little back story on how we got here with our second house renovation ๐Ÿ”จ

Carl and I bought this 1952 house in 2012 for ยฃ156,000 and over 12 years working 2 jobs, raising a family and then travelling around Europe whilst we rented out the house for 3 years we slowly renovated the whole house ๐Ÿ 

We sold it in 2024 for ยฃ410,000. We then rented whilst we worked out what to do until we found our next project house, with potential and just needing some TLC ๐Ÿค
