All floors now concreted. Going to give it a little while to go off before going over with the float. Weather has been pretty grim all morning. Time to warm up and get a brew on.

Bruce's Big Build

Bruce Harper is the Managing Director of dwanged.com, the surplus building materials marketplace.

Bruce's Big Build is the story of his self-build project in rural Scotland. The Big Build is a 5 bedroom, low-carbon, sustainable family home, in which heavily-discounted surplus materials are being used wherever possible. Super-insulated throughout, with under-floor ground-source heating, the timber-framed house takes on a traditional farm cottage appearance at the front and boasts a very modern rear aspect from where a full-height wall of glass offers outstanding views along the local hills.
