Room to Improve.

I already feel sorry for the mother. I have the feeling that Dermot will conveniently ignore everything that is important to her .

Bloody hell it's huge.

It might be handier to reposition the church.

Mammys heart isn't in it

The one request she had and he goes completely against it

Bobsammy

Don't think Mammy is too impressed, leave her beside the church if that's what she wants.

Poor Mary!
To be fair to the 3 of them, they seem to be thinking of each other.

Thankfully here in Kilkenny and know that match in 2010 was an anomaly.

Seems so expensive to do up the house.

I think maybe the daughter in law is driving this build. Not happy that he went against the Mammy's wishes.

amdublin

A lot of weight on the son since winning an all Ireland medal only a few years ago :eek:

All country ppl use the back door. Easiest access. Why wouldn't ya?? Sure you park at the back door usually. Only in estates do you enter through the front door.

14 weeks :eek:


House being built over the road from me and it's nearly finished and it's only taken 8 weeks

Weird shot to film of them knocking the books down with a crowbar, why would they do that?

Sound Bite

Seems so wrong that she had only one request and it was ignored by everyone. I couldn't do that to my mother. It just seems selfish to ignore her wishes.

€200,000 ?

Seriously, they aren't that far off the budget to totally demolish it and build a new, A rated house.

That's a crazy, crazy budget for that work in Tipperary when building costs are still relatively low.

Samsgirl

Aw, poor Mary.

If I was Mary I'd kick the lot of them out

I had written that before he moved her away from the church. Surely ignoring the initial brief of the client is not the sign of a great architect even if he can be persistant enough that customer ends up saying ok just so they don't create trouble (which is what I suspect happened here).

Would they not allow the mother to live out the rest of her days in the house her late husband built for her? Not liking this couple at all.

#letmaryhaveherroom needs to get trending.

HeidiHeidi

I'm rapidly going right off that daughter-in-law.

I'm also feeling sooooo sorry for the Mammy. She's being completely bullied here.

Atlantic Dawn

Sorry to put it like this but what happens when the mother dies? Will the house then remain seperate or will it be joined up in to one house?

harr

Feel sorry for mammy, they should have gone and built a new house nearby and left her alone...

And I've seen houses in the boom being built in 4 weeks. Speed does not mean quality

Perhaps they have the mother bankrolling it too?

I don't know. Why hire a professional who has years of experience and then insist he does it your way?


I think the reason you get a professional is because sometimes they actually know what you want and need even more than you do yourself.

HeidiHeidi

I've asked this before - whose idea was it for them all to move in and play happy families? I'm guessing it wasn't Mammy's anyway.....
