That's part of the (self imposed) problem. It's a lot of small jobs. I'm sure if it was being done all at once the folks who want big work would be all over it. But, we're living and working here. We can't realisitically (or want to anyway) rent somewhere else while it's being done so it will be small jobs one after the other until it's all done. We came in with a budget that went almost immediately on big jobs. I have good steady income but no lump of cash (right now) and the ability to move from room to room while work is being done.
Cue everyone saying I've made a rod for my own back. Which, while partly true, is my fucking prerogative. Small jobs are still jobs. Why shouldn't someone be able to get just two rooms done. Why does it need to be a big, full reno.

Feel your pain on this @stevo_com
We basically have the budget to do a side return extension with small change left, but a whole house worth of other smaller jobs that need doing.
I'm just upping my DIY game and taking on way more than I thought I would. It definitely helps that I'm a bit OCD and tend to be unhappy with the job most trades do due to lack of attention to detail/spending insufficient time on it but that means it's going to take forever!
