New roof going on as I write this plus electrical upgrade. Constant battle with bamboo, I was over a few weeks ago with my sons when we dug out the bamboo plus brambles. Coming back tomorrow to show my wife Sandra what we have accomplished but expecting the worst re the bamboo. I fear it will keep coming back until we are moved permanently hopefully this time next year.
We are pleased to have found this forum and hopefully good advice will be forthcoming if we need it.
Ps also willing to help out others whenever possible even if it’s just labouring..

Hiu Sandra and Phil,
Welcome
We are not too far from you, just outside La Trimouille (we currently live and work in the UK).
We just got back from two weeks of working on our house. We are waiting on a quote for our roof (probably complete replacement (old tiles, some timbers)), so would be useful to compare notes. I'm not sure of the name yet as our french neighbour has asked them to come and have a look while we are away - but apparently, they do 'all the roofs in La Trimouille', so it might be the same people?
Good luck with the bamboo. it's such a tough plant to get rid of.
