Welcome

CHRIS BATES, EDITOR

Around this time of year, I’d normally be letting you know about all the advice and inspiration you can find at the upcoming Build It Live shows. But with Britain in varying degrees of lockdown, in-person exhibitions aren’t allowed at the moment. So how can we bring you the detailed, one-on-one support you’ve come to expect from Build It? Well, in addition to the pages of this magazine and the wealth of information you can find via our website at www.self-build.co.uk, we’re launching our first Virtual Expert Advice Weekend on the 20th & 21st February (see page 72).

This unique online event will put 20 specialists in their fields at your fingertips - with live webinar presentations, Q&As and the ability to chat one-on-one with every one of our hand-picked experts. From project management and build costs through to structural choices, doors & windows, home technology, heating & ventilation and more, this is your chance to gain the practical tips, ideas and solutions that will help you successfully complete your dream self build, home extension or renovation project on time and on budget. So don’t miss out, head to www.builditlive.co.uk to find out more & book your place.
