That’s pretty arbitrary and you’re implying they’re not the right ones, based on what?
You’re the one who randomly mentioned £1k as some sort of limit. If you can find RAAL Lazy Ribbons for £1k a pair then do let me know, I could happily do with a few more. Anything from Fostex or JBL for and end of the line system is also going to be over £1k. I don’t get why you’d want to do a half arsed job.
I have £50k set aside for the entire build including the architect’s fee and planning fees. Not sure if this will be enough, but to make it more cost effective, instead of having a builder do everything from the architect’s plan (and pay his profit ) I may well do the Project Management and just employ individual trades and buy their materials myself.
I know I can rely on you
No, in fact I think we’ll need to start on that sooner rather than later, so that i can talk sizes etc with the architect. When I mentionrd the horns he said we might need a structural engineer.
