My one bed ground floor flat involves enough maintenance for me. Speaking of which...
The front of our house (i.e. the house we share with our upstairs neighbour) needs painting.
Next door have some builders in doing theirs at the moment. They seem like nice genuine chaps and are local.
They've quoted us £1500 for painting all the masonry, windows and the front door. Including paint. It's a three story house.
This seems like a good price to me, although to be honest I have no idea how much it should cost. I do know they get their scaffolding cheap from someone down the road and obviously there's a saving for them if they only have to move it next door for the next job.
Does £1500 seem like a good deal?

Have you seriously considered the long term maintenance on these large dwellings ?
Might be making a rod for your back.
