Hi
My Partner just bought an ex - council house in Dublin.
It would 40 odd years old now and it needs a lot of stuff done to it. I was just wondering what is the best order to do these jobs. This is the order i reckon but my reckon'n isn't say'n much as I am no expert in any of this.
Job list in order (chronological)
1. Put in double Glazing.
2. Total Rewiring. ( The wiring is a mess with wires running up, down and across walls totally visible. No chasing done. its a trip-switch fusebox though so someone did something at some stage. )
3. Have the plumbing looked at. OFCH. (I think there is a back boiler in chimney but not sure about this and there is old covered up chimney in the kitchen where an oil fired stove used to be)
4. Insulate front and back walls. (mid - terraced)
These things need to be looked at but which first. wires before windows or plumbing before wiring. I don't know for sure.
Any Advice appreciated.
