Last time the roof was getting started and now that we return about 3 weeks later, we can see the roof has been completed now, and with it a nice pair of chimneys.
Also, we've now got a near full set of windows and external doors. As you can see it's really coming on now -
Wiring has been prepared inside now after our previous meeting with the electrician so all the switches and sockets are in place.
Now we are moving into the August Builders Break period in Ireland so, much like this blog, nothing much will happen over the next 2-4 weeks.
The next step is to get the plastering / rendering done outside which will lend the house a smooth appearance prior to the white paint. The the floor screed gets poured after which there is further drying time which leaves us about 10 weeks down the line when we can start getting the kitchen in...after that the bathrooms.
I was asked, after the last post's pictures, if this house is very close to the one next to it and if you look back at that post, you can see how this could be misconstrued, so I have tried to show in the next picture a better view for the space around each of the houses.
You can also see here the finish on the house next door (particularly if you click on the picture for the larger version) which is what's coming up for us.
It was unfortunate that at this point, my camera battery died and I couldn't get any more pictures but maybe a sub post in the next while will let us see more around the sides / back / inside (if they don't lock the doors that is!)
Not much else is being progressed just yet. So we'll let you know when we make any further progress on internal stuff next time.
