Scaffolding down and Stairs up

All the brickwork was completed this week. The gutters and eaves were completed so the scaff could come down. Great to see the final form of the house now. The lower courses of bricks still need to be cleaned but the top floor is all done now externally.










And inside we've had the plastering almost finished, just a few little patches here and there remaining. The waterproofing for the wet areas has been done. We also took delivery of all the cabinetry so that should be going in over the next few days.

And of course, the stairs. What a difference they make. The voids are now fully exposed and we are really happy with the light and space the back void lets in.

Plaster started and bricks almost finished

The scaffolding has gone up allowing the final top courses of bricks to be added. The brickies are there 7 days a week and are almost finished.





The plastering started late this week and within a day the top floor was fully done as well as the bottom floor except for the ceiling. By day 2 of plastering all the plaster was in. Now it's just the edges and cornice that need to be done.
