[@markdyballuk]

coming along well, im in awe that you are doing this while working fulltime, that's incredible. lovely to have you posting again and all my best wishes for the future. you're doing great keep on

Thank you mark, just got to keep chipping away or it will never get done 😂 originally gave Natasha 5 year program for renovating this property and all landscaping, just over 2 years in from purchasing and we are looking ahead of schedule 👌

[@markdyballuk]

@@Selfbuild_TheJenkins you're doing great

[@trevoradams3148]

Coming along well folks. Just on suggestion. I would chase out the wall and put in some conduit beside the door in the bedroom/snug . Then if you decide to change the room and reopen the door you would only have to chase out the wall for the switch box.

I bet it's so much nicer to work in with the windows and doors and underfloor heating. Great progress, it's really coming on now. Well done for keeping going, I bet it's difficult to keep motivation but it will be worth it in the end.

It’s so much better, can actually work through the winter without being frozen inside! 😂 we really Can’t wait for the day we can come home from work and just put our feet up and watch tv! 😅

I dont understand why ypu guys have only 5k subscribers... it should be 10x more

[@Selfbuild_TheJenkins]

Thank you 🙌 not sure, but we can’t be everyone’s cup of tea! Hopefully we reach more people looking to do renovations or just like watching refurbs 😂 would be amazing to do this and KZbin as a full time job 🤞

Hi both Definitely a major project even for someone who has a trade to use to push the work along , but if any of us knew at the start what was in store we might never even contemplate the journey . What you have achieved is quite frankly amazing , and all while working full time on your day jobs . It’s an absolute pleasure to be part of your journey , and from my perspective be able to rekindle memories of my own experiences of renovating properties , which started back in 1978 . Best wishes and kind regards as always

[@Selfbuild_TheJenkins]

Thank you, we love hearing that people watching are either doing renos themselves or have done in the past and enjoy the videos to remind them of their own renovations. We are glad we have documented all this so we can look Back on it when we are grey and old 😅

Hi Lee, welcome To the channel, glad you’re enjoying the content! We are getting close to the end of the build and rightly so we cannot wait to put our feet up!

[@peterdnreynolds777]

Brilliant work as always, great progress being made. Hope all is well, take care of yourselves

[@Selfbuild_TheJenkins]

Thank you Peter! We are doing well and trying to get some more work lined up for the Christmas break 😅 no rest for the wicked! Hope you and your family are all well and ready for a good Christmas break🎄

[@peterdnreynolds777]

@Selfbuild_TheJenkins thank you very much, I have been off work since February with sever sight loss problems and got some bad news last week which means that my central vision and near sight vision is not recoverable at the moment. Am not spending Christmas with my family this year as they are in the process of moving back to the UK from Ireland. I will be spending Christmas with some friends. Take care of yourself, you deserve a very long holiday when this project is all over

[@bilpat5123]

Hows your flat roof performing so far?

[@Selfbuild_TheJenkins]

So far so good, we do hear birds pecking the roof sometimes so I’ll have to check it every few months to make sure there’s no damage 😅
