With the easter holidays now behind us, everyone pretty much back to work onsite now. There were quite a few work fronts going on this week. Inside the guys continued with the kitchen installation and bathrooms. Outside the aluminium guttering was starting to be fitted, as were the decking beams in readiness for the composite deck boards going down (all the aluminium balustrade posts were fitted two weeks previous). Foundation and drainage channel work also progressed on the pellet store and entrance walkway respectively. The latter was getting set in readiness for our Caithness slate tiles arriving soon which will cover the floor in hall and provide slabs for walkway to front door (i.e. same inside and out).
We had to cover the wood in the entrance hallway this week as we still don't have a delivery date for the structural glass so we don't want the wood getting damaged by continued exposure to the elements. Hope it will turn up soon as we need to get fully water tight and moved in at the end of May! We have no choice now as our rental property went up for sale this week .... panic stations, argghhh!!
