Photos from week starting 30th May

Between Tuesday and Thursday we had 140mm of rain!  It seemed to be raining continuously for three days.  Fortunately, now that the house is water tight, it didn't stop the renderer, the carpenter, the electrician and the plumber from working.

The first coast of render has been applied to the blue board on the east facade

The render on the garage has been finished

The courtyard walls have been rendered

The cavity slider units that were delivered last week have now been installed.  They look great

The cavity slider unit from the kitchen to the laundry plus the maze of wiring for the kitchen

All the power and communications wiring comes back to the garage

The plumbing is being pressure tested.  The black pipes are from the solar hot water panels

On the left is the ceiling insulation.  On the right is the fireplace.  Both well packaged

The carpenter has done a test of the timber finish around the windows.  He has used 30mm thick boards which we think are a bit too thick as they cover too much of the window frame.  We have decided to use 18mm boards instead

The roof fascia has been installed on the west side of the roof

The north facade has now been rendered and the roof fascia installed
