I will say ONE positive, actually TWO - the fact they're championing local tradesman and saying how hard they work.
But I still don't get why you'd undertake massive renovations when you're this pregnant.
Haha if I'm honest, I thought that was super patronising! I only managed half of the video so far and all they say is how amazing Josh is, how much he works, how he's there all day to work, how he works, how great his work is.......... And I'm absolutely not saying that Josh the builder doesn't work hard, but Jesus Imo, this is what normal people do, you know, we work all day and we do a good job because if we don't, we'll be held accountable and might not be able to to pay the bills. Maybe patronising isn't the right word, but definitely out of touch. Just me?
I completely agree with you though, it's great they're going local and that they actually give credit to the builders.
Doing this much work while 7-month pregnant is beyond me. They moved into the house 8 months ago, why did they wait so long to knock down walls and remove bathrooms? I'm guessing they didn't plan this well at all and had to wait for tradesmen to become available. It does sound like they haven't learned their lessons though, she says that the plumber might not be available to do the work straightaway and that they might need to go with someone else. Good luck finding someone available at the drop of a hat!
Edited to add: I went back to look at the empty house tour and I do not understand why they needed to remove the nursery bigger! It's definitely going to devalue the property.
