Day 44 - Roof Details & More Plasterboard

Rescued Ridge Tiles
The past week has been hectic with work so I've either been in the car driving to and from work, sleeping or filming. I managed to drop in for ten minutes or so this morning before rushing off to a job. The roof is pretty much finished now, with the edging tiles going on the join between the front pitched roof and the flat roof over the loft. The ridge tiles on the front roof look much better than the ones that were there before. The guys had rescued them from the skip on another job and I'm glad they did as it looks great.
Kitchen/Sitting Room plasterboard
Inside there is a lot more plasterboard up which is still ongoing and the squared off archway between the kitchen and sitting room is in place. I had my first look at the steel stairs leading to the terrace and they are very solid. The wall on the left as you go up will be rendered and on the right will be covered with slate. At the bottom as the stairwell is open to the sky, they are putting in a drain covered with a grill and the remaining space will be tiled. Finally they have installed the soil pipe from the loft bathroom loo which goes under the floorboards and out to join the other soil pipe from the original bathroom.
