Roofs Up!




Hi guys,


Its now nearly 1 month since we started & our guttering & roof tiles have gone up!


All is looking very good & more & more like a house!


The bricks & the sand for the cement has been delivered too, so hopefully the rain will stay away & they can make a start on the bricks too!


We're now getting very excited!


Can't believe how quickly its coming along - fingers crossed they keep up this pace.

Stage 2 - Frame completed

















Hi All,


Its the 02/08/08 and the trusses are up & the frame is complete!


And to top it off the windows & sliding doors have been delivered & installed too...

We've had an independent inspection & have noted some minor adjustments that need to be made: a few nails for additional support in the outer corner studs, bracing to the upper trusses & central support packing blocks under the windows to stop them bowing.

The roof & bricks should only be days away....
