week 31: down with the scaffolding... almost

The scaffolding is now down on the east, west and north. The cladding is done and capping on and looking really nice. The push now is to get the lime render on the ground floor before the frosts!

The wood fibre board on the ground floor should be exposed for no more than 12 weeks. Ours has probably been up for twice that but the weather has been kind and it does not look too bad.




A view one frosty morning with the early morning sun on the east side. I was in early to do some painting and despite a heavy frost it was warm inside the house. Insulation must be working! Painting is coming on slowly, not a lot of fun but at least we are doing it all white which makes things easy in the short term.



We also have a shiny new consumer unit ready for the house to be connected back up to the grid next week. Means I have to dig the hole in the drive again to expose where the power supply cable needs to be jointed for a second time.
