Building Works: Day 19 – Dry Concrete, New Partition Wall and Parking

Dry Concrete Floor in Family RoomFantastic! The concrete dried and the Farm has changed in perspective again. Now there is a single floor throughout downstairs the place really seems to have opened up. Now we need to fit the Celotex (floor insulation), get the UFH laid onto it, and then finish the floor with 75mm of screed. It’s great to think that we will have a modern insulated floor with under floor heating, in a 200 year old farm house!

We also decided to bring forward putting in a couple of extra parking bays as we had some hard core going spare and Liam was still on site with the JCB and we could get rid of the earth with the earth excavated from in the house.

Also, it’s great to see another new partition wall being built, this time in the master bedroom.

Three ‘working days’ left for Dale and Mark, and we also have Kitt (plumber) starting on site next Monday laying new pipe runs for the upstairs radiators etc. The old pipes are all over the place, and the cylinder is no longer fit for purpose so it’s all change for the plumbing next week as well!!
