Site visit and news of dry rot


The work to refurbish the original house has uncovered dry rot in the roof. We are waiting on reports from a dry rot expert and a structural engineer to see what is needed. Worst case (money wise) is a complete replacement of the roof.

There is also a problem with the structural integrity of one corner that needs to support a steel beam. Again we await the engineer's report.
