We gave up late last year looking for somewhere in a location we liked that we could afford, so we are extending our humble abode.

Nothing in comparison to some on here, but thought I'd share anyhow.

It's a 3m x 3m double storey extension to give a larger office upstairs & a laundry/utility downstairs.... or that was the plane. After seeing the mess the ground works created we decided to get the conservatory done at the same time.

Build started just over two weeks ago, the ground works taking the majority of the time, the brickies only came to site on Monday.

Scaffold went up Thursday, so up goes the build Friday.



Guys on site today again.
 
Great progress, looking good :)

What type of roof construction are you having?

Hope you saved that downpipe, could be re-used on the front of the new extension :D

Looks like some decent builders you have there

they seem to work very neatly
 
Onwards & upwards.



Hopefully the wall plate will be finished today
 
It's actually starting to look like a house now.....



Spent the last few evenings putting in the cameras & cables for the CCTV
 
Upstairs room was plastered just before the weekend.....





Really pleased with the room size
 
On the homeward straight now thankfully.
