His office turned out nice, would like to see the budget for that.
That’s a fine gaff in fairness. Expensive maybe but a fine gaff all the same
His target demographic for his videos etc are all in Dublin not Sligo.
So 130 k deep retrofit, no mention of insulation or heating
I'm sitting next to my Stanley 8.
I can never understand fitting poverty spec switches in a fancy kitchen.
I just said to himself, all the talk of the garden I'm expecting a cameo from Diarmuid Gavin. 😂
"come a long way from rural Sligo"
Patronising shite - is Knocklyon some sort of utopia!?
Dermot is really being a d1ck over the planter and/or shrubs in the garden
I get the impression Diarmuid Gavin won't be making an appearance to finish their garden 😁
Also, so those windows in the back open up all the way, like doors?
What's the point of that
That seems ridiculous money, how could it possibly cost that much?
I thought he said €40k 🤔
Whilst they mightn't interest me and I don't take their advice I'm good to follow people who I see on programs like this. I won't be following this guy tough. I'd happily follow her tough.
You've obviously never been to Knocklyon!
Joke of an episode in relation to the MO of the program, made up drama over a planter in the garden ffs
If it was once they talked about it that's grand but about 12 different conversations about it!
Can't see why there is urgency with garden, plenty time over years to get pots and plants.
For now no money so leave it alone and finish the house
External and internal insulation, why does everyone want to live in saunas these days.
Surely leaving the heating on a bit longer would cost less
Yep, truth is that this is a fairly standard job, so they had to come up with something to fill out the show.
It's the only argument he could have with them
Wouldn't be for me either but tastes differ I guess.
FFS how long are they going to spend yapping on about the fecking shed/garden, I'd be asleep here only for this thread 😴
I never feel they look like homes more like places people spend a few hours in!
You want to see my house 25 years still working on it. Mind it cost 37k punts. Decided to buy a new sofa, need a plasterer now 😂
Hopefully there's a budget to replace the crappy fence between them and the neighbouring houses.
They obviously can afford it seeing as they bought the house and will end up with an upgraded modern home. Don't get any sense of notions around this couple.
Well he is not coming across well on this, impression is that he loves himself.
Might be different in real life but I don't think this show will do him any favours.
He seems a simpleton
He is coming across as a cranky fecker who wants to spend all the money on his kitchen and his office and his lighting and huffs and sighs whenever any expenses come up on practical stuff like stopping the roof leaking and supporting the upstairs floor. The wife looks utterly pissed off with him at times and I've no idea what she wants in all this. She is getting very little say. At one point she wanted a place she could sit and look out at the garden and he nearly hit the roof. When she brought them onto a second room to explain what she wanted and how double doors for his lighting would ruin her space he said they had just decided it in the other room which they hadn't.
I suspect this is not the personality that goes down well as an upbeat, happy clappy online influencer.
He hasn't a clue what he wants, but wants to portray himself as some sort of a visionary
That kitchen looks like something from a crèche, some bulls***t
