TPP283: When Refurbs Go Wrong - Working With Builders: Part Two

Refurbishing property is a tricky business but if you can get it right, the rewards are there.  A good builder is obviously essential if you intend on making this your strategy. To help, we’ve been speaking with Ian; a builder with more than 30 years in the business.
