Thanks for the reply, Phil.

Do you happen to know roughly what the going rate for a 3-bed semi
would be up north -- and if you only have the ground floor done, is it
half the price or doesn't it work like that?

Approx 5 quid a metre, measure from your internal floor to your 'shelf'.
write it down.
Go outside and measure the front, side and back, times it by the height and
knock off any doors, windows etc - you don't have to be exact, and I can
tell you that half a semi is around 40m2, so £200 ish


I'm assuming we'll have to pay as most of the grants on www.est.co.uk
are linked to various state benefits.

Any disabilities in the house? - war pensioners? - family tax credits?

All these are elligible for a 100% grant for CWI
