Self Build Blog
The only way is up
With the fine weather we've been having, the block work has been going up fast.
A self build house in the making
Follow the process of how we are designing and building a new house ourselves - with help from all the right experts and trades.
Update March 2026 - We're still working on it!

One steel, two steels, three steels…
The first of the steels have been erected but there are more to come.

The first batch of scaffolding is erected so the higher levels of block-work can be built.
House walls (going up)... rain water drainage (going down)
Lots of progress in both directions in two weeks.
