Haven't posted for a day or two due to the amount of work that's going on just now (I'm also on holiday so able to get after some things too !).
The sparkies have been working well the past few days and have completed upstairs and most of downstairs now. Work that's left for them to do is the outside lighting (soffits & at the doors) and some final bits tying into the existing house. They'll probably be finished tomorrow & we won't see them again until the sockets etc are installed (about 3 weeks away).
The joiners have now fitted most of the windows - only 2 at the front, the rear door & the garage are outstanding. Looks great ! Insulation has also started to go in & is about complete upstairs. Plaster boarding has also started & most of the first floor is now boarded out. Amazing how much better it feels & sounds up there now !
The painter has also been on site the last couple of days & has made a start to painting the softwood facings & soffits. The colour looks pretty good against the stone & the larch.
As well as all the above I managed to get time at the weekend to install all the media cables (satellite & Cat6a network). The hub will be in the new workshop being built at the back of the garage, so all cables have been fed out from there. As well as the cabling, I've been up on the existing roof & scraping off the lumps of moss etc to try & get it looking a bit better. Will never fully match the new bits for colour, but it's an improvement.
