[QUOTE="Davy, post: 7371727, member: 3620"] I saved about 50k managing it myself, a 2500sqft bungalow. That's compared to a builders quote I had. I work on farm, and there was quite a bit of time spent on it. There's a lot of work to do it between trades, getting ready for the next one. No matter how well you think you've ordered, a joiner will ring you saying he needs such and such. My experience was a good one, the tradesmen all came recommended, turned up when they said they would and done a great job. If its your first build, it's a steep learning curve and a good tradesman can advise you the best course of action, and keep you right on building regulations. We did all groundworks, drainage and sub floor work. Starting a house for the parents once planning comes through, and will do the same again. [/QUOTE]
