The recession does have some benefits.
I have just received a quotation of €38,000 for an extension. This is nearly €17k cheaper than the same same job which was originally priced in 2009. We are delighted we waited

I would strongly urge all self-builders to buy Irish materials when building.
This will greatly support the Irish economy
