Hi,
Longtime lurker, so bear with me for my first thread but I could do with some advice! Basically we’re in the middle of renovating our first property (2 bed flat in London- already completed rewiring, new windows, plumbing work, new bathroom) and now at a bit of a crossroads:
We have two jobs next on our list, replastering across most of the flat and then new engineered wooden flooring in the same rooms. In terms of budget, we would be stretching ourselves very thin in order to do both jobs simultaneously and we’re also worried about getting paint on the new flooring! So we’re leaning towards just having the plastering done, painting everywhere and then having new floors once we’ve built savings back up in a couple of months. Is this crazy, due to issues with skirting boards and so on? We could obviously just wait a couple of months and do it all together, but we’re keen to get as much done before Christmas as possible. Appreciate any thoughts:)
