Blockwork complete



The last section of blockwork has just been completed! It is the section that will hold bedroom 2 and the master bedroom. Regan is walking in front of it in the photograph. So this finally gives a proper idea of how the house will work.

This week the blocks will be filled, the tray deck will go down over that section, the underfloor heating pipes will go down and then the concrete will be poured. Hopefully! At that point, our entire slab will be down.

You can also see that the builder has done a little bit of work on the framing, putting it up in front of the garage and also around the front door/entrance hall area. The handrail up at the edge of the slab is just a temporary one to stop people from falling off the edge!
This last photograph is taken from the dining area looking back towards the bedroom. Regan is technically standing at the edge of the kitchen. The hole behind him is for the staircase. Bedroom 3 is behind that staircase.
You can see two small blue poles next to Bedroom 3 - the tall one is the handbasin, the smaller one is the toilet. And the small rectangular indentation next to them is the shower tray. There's a little bit of framing behind that, which is the step up to Bedroom 2, and the blockwork just beyond that is back to the Master Bedroom again.
