The roof is finished and they are doing the plasterboard on the ceiling. The loft is powered, the lights work. YAY. And the loft bathroom tiling us underway. The loft also has doors with handles. I quite like the handles.
The roof at the front is on.. I think they are working on top now... But I can't see that bit. Here is a view from the loft ( Dave braved the ladder to get up there) and it is a lovely view from up there. It is open at the back and the window at the front is open too. But the weather this weekend is supposed to be excellent, so that probably won't matter.
The plastering is complete in the upstairs and it looks fine. The last of the "orange" is gone and they are now working on door frames and skirting boards. Also more of the roof for the grand room. The undertile paper is up and the edging around the top of the walls. The tiles have arrived, both roof and bathroom. They removed the last line of bricks from the doors. The Door company has been around and told the builders the necessary size of the opening. This is where they have boxed and poured some concrete so it comes to halfway up the brick.
The bricks have arrived for the building of the ground floor extension. The builder wanted to get all the bricks at once, so there wouldn't be any colour variation between batches. Unfortunately they couldn't be delivered to the back of the house, so builders have had to take the time to move them by wheelbarrow. I have "fond" memories of doing that once with paving stones at my parents house. Also the loft work has progressed. They have finished the roof, added a gutter and painted and edged the brickwork. Inside they are still adding plasterboard. This is the eves storage space for keeping spare suitcases. My daughter thinks it is a secret compartment.
