			<![CDATA[I'm costing out my new build which I hope to start later this year, once our current house has sold. In the meantime I'm pricing up the various elements of the build. <br /><br />Our Structural Engineer has specified a reinforced concrete basement and suggested we use either traditional timber shuttering or ICF. I've priced up the ICF route but am struggling to find comparative costs for traditional timber shuttering,  has anyone got any suggestions on which approach would be cheaper and by how much?]]>
