Day 132 -Tuesday 17th January 2017 – phase 2

Day 132 -Tuesday 17th January 2017 – phase 2

Tile removal today, on both sides of the house and middle parts, supervised by the bat licenced ecologists as we have a potential for bats.  On an earlier survey we were told we must have a bat licence as transitionary bats were spotted.  No bats or evidence of bats was found.  Electrician also at work today in the roof space, sorting out wiring, a major task.

Day 56 – Monday 26th September 2016

Wet day – Work limited to undercover.  Skylight gap previously covered in tarpaulin was recovered with board.  This will be fitted and sealed within the next few days, so should soon be water tight.  Hole was cut for doorway to new bathroom.  Bricks laid to fill gap over new lintel above the new back door.  Old bedroom window now blocked in.  Photos below.
