Construction

Our Little Project. Its been amazing to watch the place transform, and looking to try and capture it as much as possible in this blog.

Land got allocated on Dec17th - and was adivsed by Henley building would commence once the building permit gets approved from the council.
BUILDING:

Permit came through from council on 28th Jan2010. Estate was being prepared.... these photos are of the land being evened and basic services going into ground. Was good to see what is actually sitting under the house :)

Site cut 9th feb - Never reaslised it could be so fast!!

Building work started 10th feb - Services in ground 11th feb

Slab poured 16th feb - was exiciting to watch the work get done in a day

Materials have arrived and the frame is ready to go up anytime soon.







- 26th Feb, YAY! the frame is up - and windows have been set...the wiring and roof coming up and will be finished by the end of next month. Its given us a visual representation of how the place looks like and we can start planning.

Ive been slack in updating - Roof is up....they'll be wraping it up soon - and then the long wait for the bricks to arrive - looks like there'll be a break until 2nd week of april.

Stay tuned for updates.......

The signing..

We had driven past this estate a few times since last year and kept weighing up our options - finally decided it was time to bite the bullet and lock it in. Did so on meg's bday and have signed the contract for the land. it is a block of 490 sqs with 14m width and 35m depth/length in hawkstowe.

We just drove past the place and the pegs have been put in - and it will be ready to build in oct at the latest.....lookin fwd to it.
