Have we made progress?

As reported by Sheila, we have had more than three months of nothing being done on the site. This week some activity returned, as evident by the erection of scaffolding.

What can't be seen is that they have taken the step that has delayed things for so long, that is, breaking into the roof line of the original structure to facilitate the connection of the new to the old as well as the enlargement of three windows in the kitchen / dining area.
What has also been completed is the demolition of the section of the side wall that creates the gap through from the new living room in the extension to the dining / kitchen area. Two more sections of wall have been demolished to create access from the kitchen to the pantry and utility room and to allow access to the dining area from the top of the re-sited staircase.

Three months ago the main contractor was adamant that doing this would cause serious problems with the original roof structure. It didn't.

Let's hope the resumption of work continues to next week.

Meanwhile...
