Another progress update in my blog

[ProDave]

This time it's plastering.

 

Blog at the usual place http://www.willowburn.net/

Look for the entry Plastering Upstairs.

 

Here's one picture to whet your appetite

 

Next comes painting, lots of painting.

 

And the stairs are due from Staitbox on Monday

Good progress Dave, how long before downstairs is done?

[ProDave]

Downstairs is going to take a lot longer.

 

The plan, once the stairs are in and it's painted, we will start sleeping in the house.

 

Next step will be to get one of the bathrooms plumbed in but that's £££ to spend that are in short supply.

 

Downstairs is even more big ticket items like the under floor heating, getting the heat pump plumbed in and working, flooring, kitchen etc, so progress will be limited by availability of funds. Downstairs is not even plasterboarded yet.

 

So for some while yet we will still be performing a lot of functions in the static 'van.

How long did it take your plasterer to do the upstairs Dave?  

[ProDave]

4 days in total.  3 days with 3 men on site (2 spreading, 1 mixing) and the 4th day 1 mixing and 1 spreading.

I am looking for the confused smiley.

 

Never mind I'll have to borrow one.

Ah. That is where it went.

 

Wrong thread - sorry.

 

 

The plastering looks very accomplished, and I love the number of electric sockets.

Sorry what was the case ref - I feel the need to drop by the law library and refresh my memory!

Looks good Dave - 3 blokes sound a lot though.

That was the 'Harrogate is in the South' case, m'lud.
