Week 15 - Floor boards are layed on the 2nd and 3rd floor
Yay, the floor boards go in on the top level and some of the supports have been put in place for the new roof. It is really starting to look like a room and everything :-) its also alot larger than expected, including the dormer it is around 6m x 6m but with a big hole cut out for the stair to come up.
Again floor boards are layed in our bed and oph my goodness it looks quite a big room. one the windows to the right will be the onsite and the other just on the right of the picture will be in the bedroom. the window on the left is going to come out when they knock through and will be the landing to the right of the stairs whe you come up from downstairs. Well I know what I mean anyway.

Week 14 - Felt and battons are put on the roof
This is a picture from the back and you can see the roof structure is fully completed along with the dormer windows. There is only a small area of original roof left and the old tiles are being re-used along on the sides, not decided which one yet. It reallys seems to be taking shape :-)
This is a Picture of the front of the house which is still looking like a bit of a building site but again you can see it coming together. Still waiting on the architect to complete the calcs for the bay window at the front. The roof is battoned and felted in prep for the tiles. I can't wait!!
Week 13 - Completing the roof structure
This is a shot from the inside and you can see the internal wall where the stairs will come up from downstairs. They will be fitted to the left hand side of this wall. You can also see the velux on the far left which is the fire escape. This is essentially Gav's office !!
This is an outside shot of the above internal picture where you can see the velux on the left and the beginnings of the dormer window which seems much larger than I had envisaged.
