After reading through a mountain of build threads, i thought i'd create one of my own....
After slowly doing our house up, it was finally the turn of doing the living room.....
Here are some pics of its state a few weeks ago once we had a bit of a clear out......

The plan was to gut the room, get it skimmed up, new coving, skirting and flooring to go down.....
Decorate, and get it all looking nice and slick
And the demolition begins....
In comes the skip and the messy work.....
I'm going to have all my units tucked away under the stairs (inspiration taken from a family member/fellow AVF member
), so they're out of sight.....So had to run the cabling under the floor.....
Cables were run under the floor within some downpipe......
Nearly there......
Spaghetti Junction.....
More to follow soon.....
Channeling done for new switch location and cables fed to near sofa area, so i can plug laptop in etc.....
I didn't really get to take any pics during the skimming process, but here's a few with the walls mist coated.....
Things are slowly (but surely) beginning to take shape.....
Downlight cables have been run.....
Socket installed for the TV.....
New home for the centre speaker
That's about it for now.....
2 coats of top coat have gone on since....
Coving and skirting should be going on soon, and then it will be a matter of final coats on the walls, and then flooring to go down......
