Using a Contractor to Improve Your Home

Hello, my name is Tony and I live in New South Wales with my wife and three lovely kids. We recently inherited some money and decided to finally carry out some renovation and remodelling work on our home. We have lived in the property since 1999 and have never really carried out any major work on it. I didn't really know where to start so I got in touch with my friend who works in construction.

I decided to start this blog to encourage others who are planning to have work carried out on their homes.
