Probably the best week so far!
Charles, Paul and guys have really pushed the boat out his week. We have come on in leaps and bounds since Charles took over the project last week. Pretty much all soffits and fascias are in place, the roofers are starting on Monday and estimate to take about two and a half weeks. Yippeee......hopefully we can start drying out in February (if all goes to plan!) There were eight people on site one day (2 of them scaffolding guys) I have to say I was impressed......perhaps for the first time! Still no sight or sound of David!
This coming week....... I hope to see a glazing sample, trying to decide on colour of solar glazing, brown or blue? I think it will be blue since Norman came up with a good point that brown or grey always makes even a nice'ish day look dull, something I wouldn't have thought of! Clive (structural engineer/designer) is coming to visit to take a look at the framework, the main concern being where the steel has missed the padstone. The steel company have welded an extra support on, lets hope its approved!
Well, must dash, got things to do and people to see. Thanks for taking the time to visit, see you all next week
Bye for now.x.
I forgot to mention, there were a couple of issues with building control, they came and inspected on Wednesday and came back Friday to check all had been done. It was primarily about the 'birdmouth' joints where the rafters meet the wall plate, the gaps had been packed with plastic and Margaret (building Inspector) wanted them changed and to be packed with the old slates, she came back Friday and has scheduled another visit for Monday. We also had a bit of a carfuffle re the Velux windows, a discrepency between the plans and interpretation!
