Hi Shelley we are also about to move near to Casalbordino, (Vilallfonsina) and will be doing quite a few renovation items, including a pool, we are using a Geometra for organising all the correct permisions for our works, like you we ae new to Italian and will be learning on the job so to speak, finding out what is allowed to do be done seems to be the key to it which a local geometra should be able to advise. Its good to share experiences good and bad on these websites, Gary

Hi GaryGreat to hear from you, we know Villalfonsina very well, in fact our house on the outskirts! Hope your move goes well and your pool fitting is smooth, we have managed to get a couple of contacts to help us with the repairs on ours so hopefully I will be able to share great experience and contacts at some stage.Not sure if you have many contacts in the area, might be nice to stay connected as my husband and I are looking to build English contacts as well as Italian and will be back out in September.

Hi Shelley, we are out there this week signing for the house (and paying), back again in May with a van full and then out here full time in July, would be good to keep in touch, we also have a friend who owns a holiday home nearer Attessa who is going to introduce us to the local expats as well as his contacts for works to be done.

Hi,
We live in Fresagandinaria and use an interpreter to help us. She usually introduces us to the contractor and helps to explain what needs to be done etc.
If you would like her contact, let me know.
Best wishes
