    No side access to the garden either. Not a requirement but would have been nice to have

    Bannon is a plonker. Why would anyone want him anywhere near their house.

    I know this house and someone who lived there. The garden is tiny but there is a huge tarmac plot on the side. AFAIK it can't be built on due to sewage pipes underneath.

    Tight enough space, looks like it could be a nice finish.

    Builder is a funny chap, I'll have 100 on it...Dermot nearly fainted.

    The argument over the kitchen units will be interesting.

    Not sure but on the aerial shots the house next to theirs looks like it was built recently.

    Yes & very very close to them. Big house no garden

    "I just like the idea of old and battered look, and I know Dermot has NEVER produced over many seasons of this show, but I still expect him to give it to me"


    It's amazing how some of these clients don't investigate before they go on this show

    1000 on asbestos.
    surely that should be copped at the start and included in the spec and pricing

    A good builder/engineer would spot it especially at a pre purchase survey. Maybe they didn’t do one or don’t have a good people involved.

    Bonkers house alright, built by a Celtic Tiger developer as his own home. And I was wrong that it's 6000sqft, saw a paper article saying it's actually 8200! Went for 840k according to the register.

    What was the point in sandblasting at all when the new brick was matching the weathered old brick?
