Building Dreams

Part 6

Posted by Potton on 28th January 2010

The bricklayers have been finishing the chimney and inglenook and the tiler is still hard at work on the roof, so everything is still covered in scaffolding.

 

Finished brick and tiles

 

On Tuesday, the renderer started work, we’ve got brick until the bottom of the windows, then render all the way up to the roof and on the dormer window. Once he’s finished, that will be most of the exterior work done.

 

Completed render

 

The next stage is the interior work, and that will start shortly. I’ve got the glass ordered and selected the plumber and the painter and decorator.

We’re going to have a woodburning stove in the fireplace so we’ve been looking at various models – next Christmas it will look great with the tree nearby – just what Sharon always wanted.
