Build It Yourself Environmental Self Build Advice & Training

The aim of this site is to act as point to find out information for anyone interested in environmental Self-Build and renovation. I have been involved in the Self-Build movement for about 20 years. I have run courses throughout the country for anyone interested in building a home that is more environmentally sustainable.

During this time I have become more and more dispirited by the general quality of the mass housing market. Despite the growing interest in environmental issues the major house builders seem to be ignoring the issue and building houses that fail on every level to be anything more than mind numbingly mundane.

A home should be as efficient as possible and should inspire and raise your spirits and no one could say that the vast majority of uninspired boxes that are put up achieve these aims.

This web site is not funded by anyone but it will need support from users I want to spread information from those who have built or renovated a property. What have you learnt what did you do right and what went wrong. Which suppliers were excellent and who failed to deliver.
