Renovation Project Update

01/08/2021by GlenLeave a Comment

Hi everyone, hope you are well. I wanted to post an update on the house renovation as it has been a little while since I did a video. In this instalment I have just done a bit more work myself and mostly preparation for tradespeople to come in and begin the larger projects. I have also used this video to walk through the house and explain the next stages, the work that will be underway soon and upcoming projects. I have also included some photos here of the work I have completed taking off the remaining wallpaper and backing paper from the staircase, porch and living room areas.

Under-Stairs Cupboard Gone!

So in this latest instalment of my house renovation we've had some exciting updates. Firstly the rubble, bricks and concrete between the two fireplaces (in the alcove) has been removed and cleared. The fireplace at the front has had the concrete slab taken out (which it was sitting on). The electrics have been stripped back in the kitchen. The Sky satellite dish from the back of the property was taken down. Tiles from the front step (which were dangerously slippery) have been removed and the cupboard under the stairs is gone!

Plumbing Work + Updates

Well hello there! It has been a little while since I did an update on the work happening at my new house. I posted a finance video as my last instalment on my YouTube channel and blog post which you can view by clicking here. I spoke about the costs involved in the entire purchasing process including legal fees, deposit, mortgage and additional costs. In this update I'll be walking you through the next stages of work that have happened at the house. This mainly consists of plumbing work, removing the fireplace and remaining kitchen sections as well as checking the heating system and pipes.
