Kitchen extension Week 4 Days 1-5

 Week 4, Day 1 - this is the walls and ceiling plasterboarded today. Looking much brighter already.











This is the old kitchen, where the new kitchen is also going to be, unplasterboarded and looking like a dungeon!

Lots of other work, drains and gas being sorted, paving being replaced outside, step being done (think its not really needed, H thinks is compulsory with the children).
Next week, hopefully the kitchen comes in.




 Walls plastered Day 2
 Old kitchen, which will be the main bit of the new kitchen being plasterboarded and plastered Day 3.
Other work being done - paving relaid outside and a new step.

Express happenings in the garage - it has been cleared of about our 100 odd bags of junk/stuff to be sorted in 2 days and they are currently transforming it into a playroom sort of place.......very very quickly, should be done by Fri!





 Days 4&5 - a few coats of paint et voila - its finished, well the construction is.......four weeks later.
2 of the team did the painting, the rest have been busy transforming a part of the garage into this lovely living space - our unexpected added bonus.......
I have no before picture of the mess/bags/stuff in the garage, its empty now.
One of the builders team spent most of Friday doing stuff to the windows......cant quite figure out what, but from his face and words, have concluded its something major - so showed appropriate pleasure etc......
 Now, next week, Monday the tiles and Tues-Fri the kitchen will be fitted, and then hopefully over.
Im very happy with the light in the room, it looked dark and miserable when there was just brick.

Now our search for our Indian 10 seater table........short of sourcing something from India direct...
