Even though we have only just started the process we seem to be generating a lot of paperwork. Plans, photographs, brochures and bills. We decided to keep a large A4 diary since the start of the project and that has worked quite well until now. However, we are starting to struggle to keep on top of all the paperwork, particularly since we took ownership (and now have a set of utility bills to pay. Times two!).
So it was time to invest in a filing cabinet. A simple, cheap two drawer filing cabinet. Top drawer is for all the material that relates to the design of the renovation. The bottom drawer is for all the information that relates to the running of the property – utility bills, council tax, etc.
It feels much better to have everything tucked away in the right place.
