A Hard Graft

New drainage installed to incorporate soil stack and kitchen gulley internally to minimise openings through the fabric of property.
Roof covering work commences using fibre cement slates. These are identical to the neighbouring properties.
Prior to this some roof make up work needs to completed in order to marry in and continue the roof line at eaves level on the front elevation.
Furthermore two new valleys had to be built up from the pod deck into the existing back addition roof.
The completed roof...
Ground floor preparation is completed in readiness for concrete pour next week.
Existing levels are reduced by 300mm, to incorporate a 100mm concrete slab, topped with 200mm of insulation.
Following taking levels it appears that the front and rear door threshold are considerably different. Care will need to be taken with the concrete level - it can't be too thin at the higher point. The difference in level will be adjusted with the insulation.
