Week 3 - after a 2 day break lat week for gale force winds, the builders were back Monday and did the roof. These are the 3 rooflights the architect recommended, hopefully there will be enough light.
Day 2 - lots happened, we evacuated the kitchen, our cooker and fridge freezer is now in the hall and the builders have broken through. Also put the doors/windows.
Finally, a view of what the extension will look like, for the first time I think it looks large and worth all this money!!!
Cannot envisage what it would look like before this.
Now, for 3 weeks without a kitchen......
Day 3&4
The floor insulation laid, roof done - took 4 days - done by a separate team. Non stop rain daily since they have started, now the roof is on, its a bit better. This is the extended bit, where our dining table will go.
The kitchen is darker than we imagined.
Underfloor heating decided on and laid this morning. Everyone in the house except me likes/loves/has to go barefoot and this made the most sense, hopefully will not stop working etc. Tiles to go on the top.
Next week, the plasterboard then plastering/tiling and hopefully week after next, the kitchen will be put in, then finito......
In the middle of all this, we've had 10 windows replaced - double glazed, and its lovely, no condensation anymore and we think its a bit warmer.
