Bought a field, building a house
Discussion
Fun Facebook memory popped up recently, reminding us that 10yrs ago we let some other folk deal with the stress of this whole house building thing.
Mastic work and cladding ongoing, garage block is now mostly complete in the exterior apart from the lack of doors.
Greeted by an interesting noise whilst working from "home" this morning. Sounded like a truck driving in but wasn't expecting one, turns out the scaffolders had rocked up a day early to start pulling down the annex scaffold.
Finally get to see the stone work

Fantastic. It must be very motivational seeing this!
It’s definitely been nice to get a tick in the win column for a change 
Joking aside, things were getting a bit endlessly frustrating at points in the last month so this was a good boost of our spirits.

That s looking nice and sharp.
Just pop a plank under that gutter exit to direct any rain water away from the new work until the down pipe s are installed.
Will save an awful lot of damp against the new work.
It’s not even funny the amount of time I’ve spent putting on bloody downpipe socks over the last 2 months only for them to get yanked off. Every downpipe had a sock at the start of last week Just pop a plank under that gutter exit to direct any rain water away from the new work until the down pipe s are installed.
Will save an awful lot of damp against the new work.
