Things are starting to take shape

Things are starting to take shape on site as the build project continues at pace. Internally, first fix electrical and plumbing has started and walls are being plastered, so you can really get an idea of how the spaces are going to look.

Externally, demolition has stopped and we are going up! The old brickwork from the original cottage has been well matched in the new addition, in terms of colour and size. Our client is over the moon about this! The builder however, is not so thrilled, as the bricks are non-standard sizes so it is taking a little longer than anticipated to erect the walls!

Internal walls to bedrooms 2 and 3 are now in place, and plastered


Progress to external facade as porch is erected
