Posted 27/11/18

Busy homeowner Michelle holds down parenting, full-time work and studying towards her PhD. She shares with us how she used Builderscrack to outsource her housework so she could focus on the important stuff... How It Started To say Michelle is a driven person is an understatement. Sitting across from a woman that packs so much into her days is inspiring, not only because of that drive but the clever way she has arranged her life to make it possible. She tells me "I’m doing a full-time PhD and I’m doing full-time work, so for me, I have lots to do and absolutely no time. I also have a teenager who’s almost 16, who is extremely social. Every weekend there are at least five to seven friends invited, and they are having a sleepover. I come home, and I'm like, “I left it nice and tidy, what happened?”. Michelle and her son moved into their home three years ago, and with a laugh explains “how things were starting to fall apart and in need of repair”. It wasn't only hard findi

Move light switch

I have a 1944 house that has a light switch inconveniently behind the bedroom door. I would like it moved before the plasterer comes back (maybe 3 weeks). The other issue Is it looks like it might be original wiring, and I'm assuming that will be the case for all 3 of my bedrooms (communal areas were all rewired in 2005 with renovations done). Can I get just this one light switch done for now and an assessment/quote arranged for the rest?
