Day 111 - Underfloor heating commissioned

The day has finally arrived & we've got some heat in the new floor ! The sparky arrived as planned & fitted the room stats, main control box, zone valve actuators and separate control clock. We've got heat into the workroom & Jenny's room so far, and will no doubt run the system up in the other rooms over tomorrow. Don't want to warm things up too much though given that we're still missing a big window upstairs (plus we need to be careful with the concrete floor initially) !
The joiners carried on with the skirting boards, and also completed the internals to Jenny's wardrobe - looks good, and we'll replicate in the guest bedroom. The old damaged plasterboard was also removed from the laundry, and will be replaced in the next day or so (this will neaten things up somewhat).
As well as the detail work, the joiners also replaced the damaged chipboard flooring around where the old bathroom was. This has made a difference, and needed to happen before the wooden flooring is layed.
Outside the graded 'ramp' was tidied up a bit more, and round the outside of the extension was also cleaned up. Some cement works done outside round the drains & also in the workshop around the window. Same with one of the garage windows.
A lot of stuff ticked off through today, and you can really see things coming together. We've got the architect coming tomorrow lunchtime, so we'll get the whole graded piece sorted out.
