Hello to everyone!
This is our first post - we are Stephen and Julia otherwise known as NaturesHaven.
We have just started along the road of a new dedicated birdroom (well a large shed conversion) as our sunroom is getting a bit crowded and now we have time we want to give our birds more attention and more space.
We are still at the planning stage but will be starting work in the next couple of weeks and we plan to show our progress on the site under a separate thread with progress pictures and no doubt seeking lots of advice from all those who have trodden the same path..... We know many people like to see progress pictures so please bear with us if we ask questions that we may have missed elsewhere on the forum.
We have been pondering ease of cleaning for the new room especially the inside flight and once we have insulated the walls and basic lining we have been considering finishing with plastic instead of paint.
Can we ask those who have had experience of this what materials they found best, easy to fit (we are fairly experienced DIYers) and of course most cost effective and whether they have found it easier to clean and maintain? We potentially have a room 14'x10' at our disposal so cost is always a big factor!
Thank you in advance
Stephen & Julia
