Plumbers will be in tomorrow, roofer, brickie and electrician beginning of week, definitely moving along at a pace I’m happy with, lots of ordering went on this week to make sure we are ready for the onslaught next week and I may have news about the electricity soon but can’t say much just now, onwards and upwards ?imageproxy.php?img=&key=cc55a271c50209a8imageproxy.php?img=&key=cc55a271c50209a87BF46E5A-38A6-47A4-8D91-F8BC4464F696.thumb.jpeg.7bafb49ba225c240e106b623fe68582c.jpegquite an interesting roof in the middle only wish the budget would have run to oak here as it seems a shame to gyproc it all but it will still be an interesting shape

Hi @Christine Walker - great progress being made and a lot more during the coming week. Were  the  wooden sections around the dormers and gables  finished on site prior to erection or did they come to site already painted? Either way, it will no doubt save a lot of time and effort. Sadly this is an area we still need to consider!

@Redoctoberthe dormers came as panels with cut out for windows and joiners just had to cut out trusses and the panels either side of big windows came as panels ready to fit, they aren’t painted just the membrane on them just now, we’re planning to put cedral on dormers and rest will be blocked up and rendered, the middle section of the roof was the only part that had to be built, no trusses for it and the joiners did a fantastic job making it.
