the build has finished

hi, its been a long time and after some considerable pressure :) I thought I had better update the latest on the extension.  building finished at day 47, we had some snagging bits done, general things really nothing of note.  since then Tracy and I have been setting our hand to decorating.  Living room painted a sort of pale blue, and we are nearly prepped for painting the kitchen.  its been slow but the prep work has been time consuming and we have had loads of other things going on, hence the lack of progress and updates to the blog.



 attached are some photos of the inside to get the idea of what we've done.

Day 47

the plasterers did the first outside coat today and the electrician finished off all internal electrics...oooh, spotlights!  Carpenter hung the door downstairs and finished off his bits.

Day 46

the kitchen L shape was broken up and moved to a galley style today so it has really opened up the upstairs.  Lots of faffing with the water meter and pipe work but they got there in the end!! the electrician was also upstairs wiring sockets and spot lights whilst downstairs carpenter fitted skitrting and doorways.  Boundary wall also finished off outside.   Looks like the build will be finished by end of next week.


Day 45

After a long may day bank holiday laying decking, the guttering going up and pipes to soakaway laid.  Plumber hang the rads upstairs and the coving also done upstairs.
