I had a coaching course with Ionut Iulian Ungureanu and it was very good.
I manage to discover my self better and to learn how to folow my personal mission and work to achieve all my goals. I liked the most that I felt confident to share my ideas and to see where I need to work on my self.
I learn how to communicate effectively and how to organise my life in a better way, among other things and I will apply this in my life.
In 3 words I can describe the program like this

OEG Construction, Oleg and his team were absolutely brilliant. They did an excellent job in repairing and redecorating exterior of a large, terraced house in Knightsbridge. His team kept to schedule and budget and the work was of a high quality. I can describe OEG Construction team highly skilled, very professional, extremely tidy, friendly, courteous, considerate, and very reliable. I was impressed with the attention of details and clear communication throughout the project. It’s always a pleasure to works with people like that.

I would highly recommend OEG Construction for any job and will certainly be using them again.

Building Dreams - taking an average property, and turning it into something truly magical. That's what I love the most about my job.
Back when I was doing construction jobs door to door, I realised that construction companies kept putting themselves before their customer. I realised that they were profit driven, rather than focusing on sheer excellency. I saw a gap - an opportunity. And I took it. I realised what clients really wanted: a masterpiece. Something astounding, beyond their wildest dreams. Simply delivering the expected was, and still isn't enough. You have to exceed expectations - and upon realising this, I made what I now consider one of the best decision I have every made: I founded Ibex Builders.
Other building companies are driven by the money you pay them, rather than driven by the excellency that they deliver. They're too focused on getting more clients and getting their money, forgetting or simply on purposely ignoring the fact that the best business, is the one that delivers. Rather than putting profit first, rather than focusing on driving the business forward at the expense of construction quality, we put our clients at the forefront of our business. We understand that if we want to scale and do well at all - we need to be the best. Rather than misleading our clients and investing our clients money into lavish offices and marketing campaigns, we simply outperform everyone else, exceed expectations, deliver excellence and maintain a 100% customer satisfaction rate. That's the true way to go. The client get's a spectacular project, and obtain a stupendous reputation.
There needs to be at least 2m of headroom at the highest point of the loft.
1. The roof space is inspected for suitability
An inspection of the inside of the roof space will provide information as to its suitability for conversion. The main features to initially consider include height, access and obstacles. Here, a water storage tank and chimney stacks formed the main obstacles, but the height and pitch suggested that conversion was possible.
Not sure what to do if your roof isn’t suitable for a loft conversion? Find out in our guide to conversions for difficult roof constructions
2. An architect or surveyor will confirm suitability and create plans
An architect or surveyor will confirm the loft’s suitability for conversion. It is also necessary to take into account whether the building will be adequate to take the added load of a conversion. Following this, plans are drawn which also provide a basis for cost analysis, and what tasks can be done on a DIY basis.
3. The loft is cleared and prepped
With Building Control approval, work can be started by clearing the loft space. In this example the water storage tank was redundant because a new combi boiler was fitted. If this is still required then it will need to be moved to a convenient space to the side. Two chimney stacks were removed.
4. Rewiring is assessed
The electrical wiring and other services that are attached to joists and binders must be removed and rerouted. It provides a good opportunity to replace and improve the original wiring. This requirement is likely to mean that some services may not be available until the new wiring and any pipework can be replaced.
5. New floor joists fitted
The new floor joists can now be fitted. The actual sizes will depend upon the spans, but might typically be 50mm x 220mm C24 or C16 timbers spaced at 400mm intervals. Where there is a window or door opening below this is bridged by doubled-up timber suspended between doubled-up joists. The intermediate joists are attached to the window bridge using joist hangers. New wiring and any required pipework can now be installed.
6. Floors are insulated
The spaces between the joists are filled with insulation to a depth of 100mm. Following Building Control inspection, the joists can be covered with floorboards. The roofing struts and hangers are temporary but securely reinstalled until suitable replacement arrangements are in place.
7. Floorboards laid
The tongue-and-groove chipboard floorboards are held in place with screws. A water-resistant grade is a good choice, and essential in the bath or shower room.
8. Rafters reinforced
Work can now be started in rafter reinforcement in accordance with the structural requirements, so that the purlins, struts and collars can be safely removed. This will open up the area.
9. Dormers installed (if applicable)
Dormers can now be installed. This will involve opening up the roof, so dry weather is desirable to avoid the risk of water damage. The Building Control officer will inspect to ensure that the roof structure reinforcements are as specified.
Two end dormers were fitted, and a mid dormer that is destined to be the shower room.
10. Rooflights installed
Roof windows are an effective way of letting in natural light. In this project a roof window was fitted above the stairwell. These require the surrounding timbers to be reinforced but are easier to fit than dormers.
11. Staircase fitted
The point at which the staircase is fitted will depend upon individual circumstances, but when in place will give easier access to the loft area. In this example the hallway was widened by knocking down a non-loadbearing front room to the hallway wall and rebuilding the wall 450mm into the front room.
12. Dormers tiled and vents fitted
The dormers are tiled and clad to fully weatherproof them. The end dormers in this example have tiled roofs and tile cladding, whereas the shower room has a felted flat roof and tile cladding. Scaffolding will be required for safe working. Ridge and soffit vents are fitted at a convenient stage.
13. Windows fitted in dormers
The windows are fitted in the dormer openings previously accurately measured. PVCu Class ‘A’ windows were fitted here with an egress hinge on the side-opening sash to provide a good fire exit.
14. The roof is insulated
Insulation is placed between the rafters, with a 50mm air gap between the roofing felt and the insulation, for ventilation purposes. Over this is further insulation giving a total of 100mm. In the roof space above there is 300mm of mineral wool insulation. Building Control inspection is required before the rafters and insulation are covered.
15. Partition walls erected
The partition walls are erected. These use 47mm x 100mm timber studs at 400mm centres, with additional noggins. A quilt is placed within the spaces between the studs as the plasterboard is attached.
16. Wall plates and first fix
Wall plates fitted between studs will provide a secure fitting to items like radiators; they can also be used to secure the boxes required for electric sockets and switches. This is an ideal time to do the first fix electrics and plumbing.
17. Electrics upgraded
The new electrics must conform to Part ‘P’ of the Building Regulations and the 17th Edition Electrical Regulations. It may be necessary to fit a new consumer unit, or additional unit if the existing one has no extra capacity.
18. Access panels for water, electrics and eaves storage
Access panels are a useful addition. Here, water supplies and central heating feeds can be connected to the loft conversion. All metal pipework is earth-bonded together.
19. Walls are plasterboarded and architrave/skirting fitted
Plasterboard attached to the studs and rafters with drywall screws will provide the basis for the decorative plaster skim. Following this, the area is painted as required, and door architrave, skirting etc. fitted and painted.
20. Bathrooms clad and extraction fitted
The shower room walls are best clad with a cement-based aquaboard, first ensuring that all the required wall plates are fitted, and that all the required services are accessible. The shower room also requires an extractor fan.
21. Second fix, heating and finishes
With wall and floor tiling complete, the shower room items can be positioned and fitted. Second fix electrics and plumbing is progressed at a suitable time. The radiators are fitted in place, and connected to the central heating system. This picture also shows cupboard doors fitted to make use of the area behind for storage. Finally its time to decorate.
22. Decorating
The space is now ready for decoration.
