Ducts For Extract Fans

Yes, yes I know, this is getting pretty desperate for topics. We now have ducts for the extract fans. We did consider passive stack ventilation, but crapped out of it. For no other reason than there are still electrically operated components in them, so i thought, stuff it; lets keep everything "normal". Because that's what i am. Normal. Honest.

Outside Socket

Thankfully the sparkie reminded me that I wanted an outside socket. He reckons it is vital for the Christmas lights.......

Nah, is vital for pottering about with power tools.

More Wires!

More electrical roughing done today, including BT and arial wiring.

Electrical Roughing

The sparkie has been in today and started roughing his installation. That means he has started putting the wiring in place. This is also called the first fix of electrical works.

Lots of wires!

damaged windows

We had some damage to the big windows when in transit. Eagle eyed builder spotted it and has reported it to the manufacturer. They have an on-site repair team being dispatched, much like International Rescue I'd imagine. We'll see what they look like when repaired.

F.A.B.

chimbleys

The start of the chimneys has, erm, started. While at one end a metal chimney will come up through the boxes from the stove, they really are decorative. I'm not sure of the detail where the blockwork comes up outside, but I'm confident my builder has got a handle on it. I'm hoping to meet him this week.....tommorrow maybe, to discuss it.

The house has horns.

velux windows

Window number one, serving the smaller of the upstairs bedrooms. It still has it's flashings and trims to be fitted.
Window number two, serving the big upstaits bedroom. It has it's trims on. I'm sure there is a flashing piece which gets fitted under the slates.
Window number three. This one sits quite low in the roof, but is shafted down to the front hall. Because the front door has no window, this provides the natural light.
