Design Ideas for Sloping Sites
A look at the design implications of building your own home on a sloping site
The concrete screed has gone down over the entire downstairs floor. This means no-one can get in – you wouldn’t sink in it but if you walk on it, the screed becomes very rough, almost as if it’s got a load of concrete marbles scattered across it, so I’m told. So it’s a little frustrating, because there’s still a lot to do and we want to get on!
In the meantime though, we’ve been working on the outside, putting up the guttering, sorting out the drainage and putting up the fence.
Once the screed’s dry, it’s all hands on deck as the plumbers, carpenters and electricians come back to do their second fixes.
