this is awful - who would hard such defenceless animals 😞

I don't know if you found someone in the end but I used home tales for my ground floor and loft and they were excellent. Much cheaper than the alternative (I got a RIBA quote and it was high). I used their builder too, also excellent x www.hometales.co.uk

Yeah mine charges when closed. Many nurseries do this as they have to pay their staff holiday pay etc. it's outrageous! but you get used to it 🙂

I did a l-shape dormer in 2021 and the cost was £55k plus vat (not internals included, ie. carpet, paint and bathroom appliances)

finally! how exciting 😄

I always get letters / parcels delivered for the adjacent road which I try to take round but it's very annoying!

Such a shame - it's happened to me more then a few times

have you spoken to a company about the build cost? I did a side return (nothing fancy, but nice quality) and it cost me ?60k without any of the internal stuff. Then I spent ?30k on a kitchen, ?6k on my floor etc etc. It can easily go above ?100k I would say but you need a company who can help you keep the fluff to a minimum. I used hometales for mine and they advised on cost before I went ahead and they were spot on. Maybe try contacting them or similar? www.hometales.co.uk
