A place for renovators to share dreams, problems, questions and information - without boring their friends! (By the way - if you're wondering why the GOOGLE ads now appear - it's because I've stopped paying for the premium service that keeps them away. But I don't get a cent from that advertising - honest!)

After I finished the six-year epic my renovation became, I sat down and wrote a book about it. I was determined not to let my builder off scot-free and I wanted to help other people avoid the same mistakes I'd made. (You can find out more about The Renovator's Survival Guide. here.)

I'm sure you're thinking disaster could never happen to you, but if you're about to start your renovation, in the middle or tearing your hair out as it all goes pear-shaped, you'll be wanting help. Why not share your stories and questions here. You may find some answers - and survive your renovation intact!
