Day 3 – 14 September 2020

After a busy weekend, where we spent most of the time sorting stuff out to make life a little easier, Monday was a quieter day.

Over the weekend we placed the dishwasher in a better, safer space, tidied the temporary kitchen and sorted out utensils, food etc.

Although we were up early Monday, Chris, our builder, didn’t arrive until around 11. He’d been trying to resolve our engineering requirements all morning and had been waiting on the engineer. He spent some time with us going over our plans, discussing electrical layouts, lighting solutions and joinery. Finally, the engineer rings and Chris discusses our needs. In good news the engineering requirements will be resolved tomorrow with works starting on Wednesday.

We are removing three walls, one is a load bearing wall, the other is at the rear of the original house and needs some work to carry the new load. I’m not an engineer so I just nob my head as Chris is telling me what needs to be done.

He leaves and we get back to work.
