Remember the kitchen?














This was all we had for a kitchen for a week!








24 October - catch up




Well we have been here 6 months now. Still lots to do. Remember the huge conifer in the front garden? This pic also shows the front bay window - repaired twice, continued to leak in two places - so replacement now ordered and due installation any day now. But the conifer is no more!

Extension again - had a doorway bricked up as plan to change the window on this wall to French Doors. Made good use of the door though - better quality than the back door in the kitchen so we swapped it. The back door was better quality than the garage door - so we swapped it!






This picture shows the cracks in the extension - there were over 40 of them! The roof trusses have been stabilised, braced and reinforced and there should be no further movement (we hope!)


Main Bedroom - front window - we found it is fitted badly and has been leaking! Nicely repaired and insulated now!


Work in progress - clever trestle system - I'll remember this when painting ceilings in future!

New ceiling in the main bedroom - builders did a good job!
