Through the keyhole at the renovation project before work begins

   

The old dear has gone into care

Looks like someone’s already had a good rummage

What’s left in it for me?  £750 worth of rubbish  to get rid of!  Waste is becoming just another part of the hefty budget when it comes to renovating.

 

3 Bedroom Home ripe for renovation

it’s a bit like snakes and ladders buying property  – from 2 beds to 1beds to 2 beds to underdwellings then  back up and then  back down then up and now to a 3 bed – life is a rollercoaster with lots of ups and downs  – a bit like a ski lift attendant’s job.

3 bed house, there isn’t  a straight wall or right angle in the place – 44 down lights –  not one missed or a timber joist in sight through the holes.  Intelligent fans installed – a must for  LABC approved buildings  – with all the modern forms of DPC and insulation the air / moisture  needs to go somewhere.

The importance of testing and inspecting – blow dry or blow fry?

A customer was using this socket to dry her hair up until I removed the cover  – imagine the hairstyle she would be sporting had it gone on for much longer?

Sorry folks  – couldn’t get out of the drive today without nearly crashing the van  – hope you understand.

After a morning finishing test certificates, quotes and invoices it was time to down laptop and play out!

Consumer unit upgrade and relocation

 

Re- locate consumer unit out of damp ‘coal hole’ to top of cellar steps complete with switched fuse isolator in place of the old consumer unit.

Just because copper wires are 30+ years old does not constitute a full re- wire if they test ok. If in doubt contact Appleby Electrical for an honest opinion.
