Listen Later

With another ten tips covering what you should be doing as well as great reminders about what not to do.

From miracle cures through to good design listen in and hear exactly what to do to make sure your refurbishment projects  are successful every time

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Don’t go for the miracle cures, if it sounds too good to be true it probably is
  • If you are working on a property make sure the work you complete compliments what’s already there
  • Don’t be tempted to cut corners and buy cheap – it will comprise what you are doing and you may end up having to do it again
  • What you are doing should enhance the building, make a good job but keep it simple
  • Build a relationship with a good builder and ask their opinion and advice about your refurbishment
  • Ask your builder to help and guide you, use their expertise to make sure you are getting the best deal every time
  • Make sure you are involved in the process to get what you want at the end of the refurbishment  
  • Poor design is a waste of money and often impractical – good design is transformational and increases value
  • Energy-saving matters and you should take every opportunity to create energy efficiency
  • Make sure you are working in the right way, make good use of a detailed schedule so that time and costs are managed successfully

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘Certain postcodes and areas have a ceiling price and you need to be aware of what it is’

‘Because I knew the numbers we could make it work’

‘Poor design can squander potential, waste money, waste space and lose you profit’
