Latest update
Radon barrier was finished and 100mm insulation was put down on the floor
Image
Then all the pipes for the plumbing were laid. all run back to a manifold so there is no underfloor joints and we will be putting in 3 heating zones
Image

floor was poured and powerfloated
Image
Nice smooth finish on it
Image

How it looks now, block layers coming on Tuesday
Image

2-3 weeks and we should be at roof level.

WOW Ash,

Things are moving very fast for you. You have obviously got a good builder/workers gettings things done...fair play, it looks a very big house/site with some great views. :alien:

I look forward to seeing it hopefully this year Bud. Hope the good building weather continues for you.

Best of luck.

John.

Fair play to you Ash - looks the biz - all those cables make it look like a fuel depot - wait till Una starts looking at kitchens and decoration items - get ready with the cheque book !!
