January Update - week 93

Hurrah helpers for the weekend and we now have a completely finished ground floor; all grouted and sealed. Thanks mum m.


The bathroom was also suddenly transformed this week with a hand made oak bathroom cabinet fitted and the wash basin, towel rail and radiator being plumbed in. A nearly finished room and our vision is slowly becoming a reality.





January Update - week 92

The double doors in bedroom two were hung and all the door furniture fitted.Quite a complicated job as these doors are designed to fold all the way back allowing maximum light to flood through the bank of velux windows through to downstairs.


Dave had fun making a right mess in the utility room grouting the newly laid tiles.

December Update - Week 91

With 17 layers on (honestly!) we braved the bitterly cold christmas period and fitted all the architrave upstairs, hung the internal bedroom and bathroom doors and fitted nearly half of the skirting boards.

All is ready for the carpet to be fitted now!

Adam and Andy, two very competent joiners, came and finshed installing the staircase which has transformed the place.



November/December Update - Weeks 86-90

Working around a very enjoyable break in South Africa Dave managed to finish the limestone flooring.
