Safe Flooring

But remember kids, always use protection...

















This is how our floor will look like for a while but its better than having paint and other crap spilled on it...
Painting continues and we are trying to choose between 3 off white shades. (Magnolia is looking attractive or do they call it Taupe now??)

Floor down

Terrazzo floor finally installed and painting has started. The house is now so bright with white floor and brilliant white paint that we nearly need to wear sunglasses.

Terrazzo

Terrazzo has started with Danny Fegan from Northern Ireland.
Here you can see the cement marble mix down and curing. The plastic is to stop the areas exposed to direct sunlight from drying out too fast

Our half yearly update

I just had a look at the blog today and was shocked to discover that it has not been updated since December last. A lot has been happening since then and not just with the house which is why i haven't been maintaining the site.
To summarise
March 2008
Drainage in

Insulation down


Central vacuum system in

Shed built

External wall muddied (bloody kids....)

Bore holes dug for Geothermal heating



Underfloor heating pipes laid


Anyway that's March and I am sure that more has happened since then. Now where's that camera...
All the photos are in the web album here as will any new ones I add
