BuilderScrap has been talking this week to Flame TV, a company making a program about using builders surplus materials to help people ‘fix their home for free’.  Can youhelp?

FIX YOUR HOUSE FOR FREE

WE NEED YOUR HELP !!!! – “Fix Your House For Free” presented by Tommy Walsh and Liam Collins is an eco design and building project which is going to be aired on Discovery later this year for 10 consecutive weeks and has already garnered lots of publicity. It will head up the autumn schedule on prime time.

 This project is all about eco building – recycling and reclaiming goods – putting materials we throw out to good use by reusing them. We will be sourcing these materials from skips outside homes – with owners consent – and from salvage yards and we will be looking from anything and everything – rubble, tiles, concrete, wood flooring, panelling, cupboards, bricks, windows, metal, bathroom and kitchen units etc.  I have all environment agency licences in place to enable me to take materials from building sites and skips and reuse them.

 This is a zeitgeisty series – some projects we undertake may be helping people who have been affected by the current changes to the property market – so they want to enlarge or convert their house or build an office in the garden. As we are taking on five projects – anything from conservatories, garden offices, loft conversions, extensions etc we will be looking to source a large amount of materials – bricks, timber, glass, doors, windows, floorboards, plasterboard, tiles etc.

 If you feel any of your projects may have surplus materials we could use (sand and cement, bricks and timber we’ll need in abundance!) then please do let us know – we would film Tommy or Liam coming to the site and chatting with your representatives there, which would allow for your branding to get screen time.

If you do think this is something you may be able to help me with please do not hesitate to contact me.
