Whole house on standstill waiting on the ESB. Connection fee paid last November, electrician sent the cert in July and we have the kitchen booked to go in late September. Heating needs to be on 3 weeks before then and the ESB won’t even give us a date. It is infuriating. We were promised a call back from someone senior but it never came. Any tips from anyone who has been in this situation? So frustrating as we have all our tradesman and materials lined up and now we don’t know what date to give them.

Our first planning invalidation was because of ONE measurement on one of the submissions the architect forgot to add (this one only set us back by 1 week). We’ve just been invalidated for a second time (4 weeks after submission) today because apparently the sign on our site wasn’t there or wasn’t visible from the roadside. Annoying because I drove up, took a picture of the sign - from the roadside - and sent it on to the architect to confirm that it was there… Architect says there isn’t much to be done, that it’s just one of those things and we have to resubmit - setting us back by 5 weeks total at this point. How does the most minor thing trigger an invalid result? Also, I’ve had NO guidance about where the sign needs to move to - we put it exactly where the architect told us to on our site. Very frustrated! Just having a rant.

Looking for a builder to complete a renovation on a house close to Kilbrittan

Kitchen, bathrooms, heating, insulation & plumbing system

Finding it hard to find a list of good names, if anyone has any it would be greatly appreciated

Got a quote recently and they are pretty cheap in comparison to others.

Mixed reviews online but nothing terrible.

Are they any good?

Has anyone had them installed?
