We've Gone National!

Darran and I appear in the Mail on Sunday today as part of a piece Stephen Womack wrote on 'How to get a lot more house for your money'.

This came about via Buildstore and Jaclyn, their PR Manager. We were really pleased to be asked, interviewed by Stephen and have an 'action photoshoot' a few weekends ago. The online article doesn't show the photo of us tiling the kitchen floor, that only appears in the printed copy.

The picture above was another taken by Paul Lewis, one of the Mail's photographers who came out for the photoshoot, so we thought we'd share this with you too.

Autographed copies are available by request!

Buildstore Case Study

A little while ago we were contacted by Buildstore, the UK's leading organisation for self build, renovation and conversion products and services. Our mortgage is with Buildstore Financial Services and during a conversation with our mortgage advisor, Tom McSherry, he asked to see some pictures of our project which he had helped to support, I sent him through a link to this blog, and the next day was contacted by Jaclyn Thorburn, PR and Communications Manager for Buildstore wanting to feature Darran and I as a case study!

We were really, really chuffed, to say the least.

Buildstore often get approached by national newspapers and magazines for stories for self-build projects and Darran and I are now in the mix should they get any requests. We are also featured on their website here.

Jaclyn has also requested a picture of Darran and I in front of the house, which we have promised when it's looking a little more picturesque i.e. when the Roundup has done its job, which shouldn't be too long now.

Thank you again to Jaclyn, Tom and the team at Buildstore for taking an interest!
