Britain's Got the Builders In

Episode 5

Duration: 1 hour

First broadcast: on BBC Two EnglandLatest broadcast: on BBC Two Wales

Series following a number of domestic building projects, looking at the relationship between builders and their clients at what can be a hugely stressful time.

We revisit the Atherton family whose self-build in Cheshire has been beset by problems. Daughter Rebecca is struggling to divide her time between her young family and site, whilst her dad Paul is losing patience with the process. With everyone at an all-time low, it seems that getting the build watertight is a long way off.

Meanwhile in north London, builder Bill Collins has taken on the task of renovating and extending a property for Chike Okonkwo. But it's not long before Chike begins to make changes to the original plans and Bill is left with a difficult decision. Does he keep on building according to Chike's new spec, or does he raise the tricky issue of budget? Show less
