Shuttering came off the first lift of the new wall on Friday. It's now Sunday and it's still standing ... phew! Nick, Neil and Michael were the ramming team Thursday and Friday. Everything went well and we have been admiring our wall as it starts to dry out over the weekend. This afternoon we are building it some protection. Next week the scaffolding round it comes down and the walls and 1st story joists of the house go up - so lots of large objects being moved around the place. We definitely don't want any dings.
Nick and I both have a heavy working week next week and then the 2nd part of the wall begins again on the 31st.
Neil and Michael working on the last layer.
Fresh out of the shuttering.
The wall bathed in sunshine on Saturday morning. It looks a lovely warm yellow colour, the layers and textures showing up nicely.
Scaffolding is now up around the perimeter of the house ready for Regal to start fitting the SIPs panels next week. Our middle bit of scaffolding will come down on Monday.
