Here are some photos of my own design and efforts, they are of my complete renovation of our own kitchen and bathroom and all done on a very tight budget meaning that I had to keep component costs to a minimum without cutting corners. The kitchen was effectively three rooms and a cupboard made into one. The bathroom was one room and two walk in cupboards made into one.

Downstairs, it entailed removing a toilet and wash hand basin, relocating pipes and soil pipes and an outside drain.  Complete refresh of the electrical system.  Knocking down walls and fitting an RSJ (had help with this), levelling floors as all rooms were at a different height, filling and levelling walls, taking down and replacing a ceiling, installing new flush ceiling dimmable lighting, floor tiling, removing a back door, making good and replacing it with uPVC window, coving and of course installing a new kitchen plus a host of other jobs I can't remember right now.

Upstairs, removing door frames and constructing new timber frame walls, ripping up old rotten flooring and laying new boards, relocating of three radiators, relocating of new bath, toilet and waste and relocating and installing new sinks, cupboards, flush ceiling dimmable lighting, coving, countertops and mirrors and over-sink lights finally, the floor to ceiling tiling in multiple styles.

The City Building Control Surveyor has approved the alterations and an Electrical Installation Certificate was obtained.  The only things that I had assistance with were the butting of the worktops, cutting and taking down the walls and, I had a trade plasterer to cover the new walls and ceilings that I had put up.
