Article: Extension Close To Completion

Post    Published: Monday, June 21st, 2010

After our working day on Friday was rudely interrupted by the beginning of The World Cup which we had to go home and watch, we set about finishing off the installation of the bi-fold doors now we had the correct hardware to get the job finished.  By the end of the day we had all the doors in, and to my surprise everything was working as it should do.  I don’t mean that in a way that we don’t normally do a good job, but normally doors of any kind need alterations making so they open and close properly and with all the various different components that make up five moving doors I was expecting a few issues, but everything was working as it should do and the doors really set off the look of the extension.  On Tuesday Stu carried out the finishing touches to the doors while I started doing the first fix electrics and running in the cables to the various switches, lights and socket boxes.  In the afternoon we went out to pick up all the plasterboard and associated materials so we were ready to go the following day.

 

On Wednesday and Thursday we were plaster boarding all the interior walls and roof area, and come the end of Thursday we had it all finished and everything was ready for John and J the plasterers to come in on Friday and skim all the walls.  While John and J were plastering on the Friday, Stu and I were staining the neighbours facias and soffit which was a little job we had picked up while on site next door.
