TV, couches, bay window and fireplace. How can they all fit nicely?
Comments (6)Rad in the bay to knock off the chill. Put a nice cover on it. Perhaps a built-in settee like one of these that are vented for the rad. If not seating, then put a nice game table and chairs there for entertaining and family time. One sofa and two chairs (all small apartment size) will be most flexible for arranging and rearranging.

Comments (71)Since you asked for honest opinions, I think that is the most awful sofa I have seen. You made a great decision to cancel your order.

Comments (9)Nice Tractor shed ! Normally when constructing wooden wall, you would just create the openings in the frame for the windows and doors out of the same timber as you go by changing the postition and length of the noggins. You don't buy frames for the windows as they just screw to the wood. Door frames are easily ordered off the internet, so when you're doing the construction, know in advance what size windows and door frames you want. The challenge is the roof construction as it needs to be sound and the whole building will likely need to comply with building regs, therefore, i'd suggest that unless you can design this to comply with building regs yourself, then you'd need a structural engineer to do it for you. You need allsorts of different sized timbers for different points on the building and roof, so best to either find one that you can order from the net and amend a little or get the structural engineer to tell you what you need. ( he would do that anyway on his plan ) Plans too are often available off the internet, but you pay for the service as it's a skilled and time consuming job. If you're not happy with all of the construction yourself, then i'd still suggest a good carpenter. I'm sure you can find one that will be happy for you to work along side and not just take over, as i get the impression that's what you'd like. I've done the same for some customers. However, you must be prepared for the fact, that you may slow him down and time is money ( no offence, I don't know your abilities with regards building construction ! ) Here's a good guide for planning permission etc on Timber framed buildings Timber frames There are some wonderful buildings on here that may suit, or the carpenter could amend :- Warwick Garages As for the Sheet cladding :- It's a specialist fit job really as there are all sorts of bits and bobs you need to bolt them together and then to make the roof ridge. You would be best to use a site like 'My Builder' to find a specialist in your area that can do it for you. Again, with this, you need to find out the sizes of the sheet materials available before you can plan for the roof timbers because, the sheets come in particular sizes, the roof timbers need to be the right distance apart to bolt to the timbers without the need to cut each one to size with an angle grinder. Here's and example of sheet cladding suppliers Steel roof sheets It all sounds very complicated I know, to people that build stuff all the time it's not that bad, you just need to know an awful lot if you're going to start from scratch and not buy pre-fabricated. Hope this has all helps. I wish you bags of luck with your project, it sounds very exciting. Get a structural engineer and chippy on board to help you and you'll be fine!...See MoreTired 3 bed 1900's terrace. How can I make the exterior look nice?
Comments (18)Hi I’m also a developer/PRL, and the best price of advice I was given when I was starting out was to remember that on low to mid range profit projects (if not all projects) controlling your spending is the most important thing to remember, and every £ you spend is a £ less profit. I too hate uPVC windows and would not have them on my own home, but many people do like them and see them as a positive when it comes to buying/selling – just look at the houses either side of your house, and I assume along the whole of the street; people do like them! With my developer head on I would suggest that you try to work with what you already have - clean the uPVC frames inside and out with a solvent based professional cleaner, these really shift dirt and marks, and to a certain extent make scratches less noticeable as it removes the ingrained dirt. Replace the interior handles – new ones can be found online at around £1.99 each if you bulk buy. Replace any worn seals with a new universal fitting seal (approx £16 for 20m). If any of the windows are blown/misted, look at replacing the sealed glazed unit instead of the whole window, again the sealed units can be found quite cheaply online. With regards to your porch, it looks like it is integrated with the front window, so removing it would be a time consuming and costly job, so I would leave it as is and possibly look at just replacing the outer door, ideally one with a glazed panel to give a bit more light. I know you said you don't like uPVC doors, however, composite doors are more expensive. As you won't be living there does it really matter if you install a white uPVC door, as long it is the most tasteful and least offensive one you can find. An alternative would be to install fully glazed French doors with both sides opening, which would possibly mean that the doors can open inwards. All of these can be bought online and be fitted yourself – however, you will need to check if you will require a FENSA certificate issuing for the work, otherwise this could cause issues when you come to sell. I wouldn't advise painting the uPVC, as it is really difficult to obtain a good finish, and nothing looks worse than poorly finished paintwork either inside or outside. As others have said, remove the nets, put up some nice curtains (these can be removed and reused on other projects), don't worry regarding privacy, as again you will not be living there, and it will allow more light into the room. If the privacy angle does bother you, you can always put a plain white voile (costs around £2 per m, and a couple of £ for the rod) up at the window with little or no fullness, which gives a more modern, less fussy finish. I would move the dustbins to the rear of the property, and put a couple of large pots in the front garden – I tend to use Olive trees as they can be shaped and don't mind too much if they aren't watered regularly – these can also be removed and used on other projects. Hope this helps – and good luck for the future!...See More- PRO

4 days agoA lot of times the wall with the TV would be the one that is accented, however you can see in the first two images that the TV is over the fireplace and behind the sofa is a pool table with an accent wall behind that. The other images show the TV wall as the accent wall. There are plenty of ways to accent. See the designs below for more ideas:
