Yesterday saw the complete removal of floorboards in the back bedroom (barring the ones under the built-in wardrobe), the insulation and BRC being laid for the porch, the outside tap installed, the water main feed cored through the bathroom wall, the gas main feed cored through the kitchen wall, and an attempt was made to address two leaks.
Today.. well, the ceiling in the living room came down before 8 am. The builder and his mate now need to de-nail the joists and treat the ones that are in reasonable shape, plus replace the three or four that absolutely have to go. There’s a possibility we can open up the slope above the stairs while all this is going on, which would stop me hitting my head every time I go up/down the stairs.
