Hello! My name is Walter and this is my construction blog. I am not a construction contractor but I do take a keen interest in DIY, bricklaying and roofing. My interest started when I decided to have my home extended. I called in a team of local contractors and worked with them to plan the work which needed to be carried out. As I had just retired, I had all day to spend hanging out with the team as they worked on the job. I became good friends with a couple of them and I learnt lots of cool construction tips and tricks.
