Over the last week or so, the electrician has been taking up floorboards and getting holes knocked into walls; a standard skip arrived, got filled, and was removed; the builder finished boarding out the ceiling under the back bedroom, and has started skimming.
On the note of the skimming – this guy is good; the skim is so smooth fingers glide over it, and if you look along it, it’s reflective. It’s an incredibly good skimming job.
More stuff moved; BESTA bits, not sure where they’ll go This is the inside of the old water tank.. ewww Old floor waiting to go in the skip I can see the corner again! New joists with OSB flooring A crooked view of the plasterboard-covered stairwell top Sand and cement render over the walls The boxing in the bedroom, with electrical cable punched through A temporary rats nest in the kitchen Boarding over all the opened up bits Boarded over ceiling More wires appearing at the consumer unit The wall.. is not true More record keeping of where all the mechanical fixings are Fully boarded out beam The skim coat The reflective skim coat Ceiling covered, and looking less curved Tidying up in the kitchen Taking up for wiring in the third bedroom That pipe is the outflow from the Saniflow ensuite It goes along the boxing I can see the floor of the kitchen!
