Despite the continued appalling weather, much progress has been made during May.  The first house has had the outside bricks put in place and much inside work completed.  The second house has had the first floor and roof put in place.  We had an inspection visit from the customer’s housing warranty provider who commented on not only the quality of construction but also how well the site was organised.

The picture on the left shows the brickwork on the outside of the first house.  The picture on the right shows the roofing tiles ready for the second house (which now has the first floor and roof trusses complete).  The scaffolding on the first house will soon be removed.

These pictures show tiles for the second house.  The tiles are placed on a small conveyor belt which lifts them up to the roof.  The tiling will have been completed very soon.
