There is an online forum which allows advertising of construction related companies. Its heavily moderated so non construction related pages are quickly removed.

House extension and building forums

There are 2 forums that I have come across that are very useful resources for those wishing to construct a house extension and those who just wish to seek out building and construction information from others in the industry or who have had some experience.
www.house-extension.co.uk
www.forum.building.co.uk

In these I have started a thread which affects everyone in the construction industry 'Should building professionals be regulated'
As my opening post to this blog I will take the time to describe me. I am a Chartered Architectural Technologist based in Milton Keynes. My business SKETCH3D design and drafting provides Architectural services to those requiring house extension plans and building designs. We aim to provide a quality service with accurate and easy to read documentation. Our web site contains a wealth of information for clients please take a look. www.sketch3d.co.uk Over the course of the blog I will be describing the services I provide along with information I have found in the process of documenting buildings to eventually make this a useful resource for those looking for products and methods in construction.
