This way, a 12-week build programme will be broken up, feel less arduous and before you know it, there will be light at the end of the tunnel!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.buildteam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Charleville_Circus_12-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/www.buildteam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Charleville_Circus_12-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4859\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.buildteam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Charleville_Circus_12-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.buildteam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Charleville_Circus_12-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.buildteam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Charleville_Circus_12-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.buildteam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Charleville_Circus_12-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.buildteam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Charleville_Circus_12-2048x1367.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.buildteam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Charleville_Circus_12-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.buildteam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Charleville_Circus_12-scaled.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One question we are frequently asked is\u00a0\u201cCan we still live in the house while the works are carried out?\u201d.
