Day 6

Today the concrete foundations should be going in!

We managed to miss all the action! Stew was at work and i was at a hospital appointment with Bethany.

 The skip has been removed and apparently there was a huge concrete mixer on drive to pour tons of concrete in.

Here is what we found on return to the house:

Day 4 + 5

Day 4

Pouring with rain today so not a lot the builders could do apart from make a mess of the inside!

Day 5

The sun came out today the builders got on with digging the deep foundations by the side of the drainage system and the building inspector came out to check the foundations! hopefully concrete will be going in the holes for the foundation on Monday!

Concrete mixer ready for monday

Hole beside drainage system really deep!

Day 4

No work done yesterday as it were P..... well really really raining!

Day 3

Woke up with Bethany grumbling! Think she may have had a fit this morning. She went back to sleep which is very unlike her! She not a well girl poor thing. Doctor coming round in a bit to see how she is. Hoping its nothing too serious as we are currently on half-term holidays!

 Drilling started at 8am this morning!  The builders have been hard at work all day, they have filled there first skip and already got another one on the drive to fill. The foundation holes have got deeper and they have found the drains for the new wet room.

Day 2

The rubble has been removed and the skip has been filled!

We now have a big hole/trench!  Not too much drilling today. We can just about get Bethany's wheelchair past the skip to get to the back door. Stew is going to have to hack a plant down at the front so we can use the gravel!

Slowly getting used to having the builders around.

Wonder what day 3 will bring?

Day 1

We survived the first day! lots of drilling all day and this is the end result ! Little one managed to have naps with all the noise ! my car is looking more grey than black now ! Can't believe it has finally started!
