None of this could have been achieved without our lovely builders:

Thursday/Friday, 15/16 January 2009

The scaffolders arrived and over the two days managed to erect all the scaffolding needed. The electricians continued to fit the sockets and switches.

Lots of work going on but no major changes to photograph. Plastering around landing window and on the wall, some more studding in the bathroom around the window and work started on the outer warm roof lining of the bathroom extension flat roof:


It was discovered that the main roof was in a much poorer condition than was first thought and will need to be reroofed completely. It was originally thought that just the sea-side of the roof would be renewed and the land-side would be repaired with the best of the tiles, however most of the fixing nails have corroded away and the slates are falling off when touched.
