Monday 30th was the first week of demolition phase. We were hoping for something like this...
But, alas it was a bit more subdued, though luckily for the neighbors. No wrecking balls or hendrix in sight....
The Contractor for this package, Simon Tozer, will be doing the demolition as well as the new footings, slab, terrace and retaining wall to the rear. His program is for 7 weeks. At the end of the fist week there are no huge diggers or wrecking balls.. but there is a loo, a skip and a good deal of work been done inside in terms of soft strip. Asbestos was meant to come out on Thursday but that has now been postponed till next week. The plans for next week also include removal of roof, windows and potentially starting to knock in the walls. Like this week though it is a short week. Fingers crossed.
Our electrician has been on site again this week and has taken down the phone line and put a temporary power supply into the garage. The potting shed which continues to hang onto life by a thread (of expanding polyurethane) can now provide tea as well as First Aid - apparently.

Currently the loo perfumes the site with a light hint of almonds.
