York renovation

A good customer of mine got me to project manage her renovaton project in York. I was still waiting for my house in Hebden Bridge to go through so why not? 2 bedroom mid terraced with back yard, on street parking 1/2 a mile from the city walls.



upon first inspection it was clear there was rising damp throughout the ground floor


The drains were broken and blocked
hack off plaster + render to 900 / repair floor joists / timber treatment install channel round perimiter where floor is to ground
first coat of sand cement / waterproofer
plastered out time for second fix + kitchen / bathroom
central heating

So far it’s taken 6 weeks for the renovation with the kitchen / bathroom to go in next week and finishing off of the electrics. All in all it will probably be completed around 1 week from now making it a total of 7 weeks from start to finish – strip out, re- wire, new central heating, damp proofed, plastered, new kitchen and bathroom. Nice little house!
