Garage Windows

To make the garage more secure, a decision was made for the builder to brick up the 4 windows...
this is probably a cheaper option than having to replace them all with new window frames, as current frames are rotten. Over time, the garage walls will be rendered to cover up the mis-matched blockwork and bricks

We have light!

Second fix electrics commenced today, all going well so far. Didn't realise quite how many double switched sockets we have in the cottage - 20!

Just love the chandelier fitted in the kitchen...... we found it in a shop in Knaresborough!

Door Frames

Rather than try to refurbish existing door frames that have years of paint on them, we opted to replace all of them, except for front hallway, which didnt appear to have quite as many layers of paint!

After door frames fitted!

Loft Access

The central part of loft is now boarded, this is to be used for a "Boys Toys" area..hopefully eventually to have a train set up there.

The plumber and electrician hve diverted cables and pipes away from this area.

A new timber loft ladder and loft hatch has been installed for easier access from the hallway.
