Week 62, Day 5:

Some tidying up of the mains water stop taps, installing access pipes so the surrounding area can be back-filled
Installing the concrete foundation pads which will support the galvanized steel columns for the canopy over the side door
- There will also be a canopy over the front door but the columns for that will be supported by the retaining wall

Looks different without the site cabins

Week 62, Day 4:

Another air pressure test (number 4, I believe) but not the result the build team were hoping for after the work to fix the leak found in December. It came in at 0.92 Air Changes per Hour which is pretty much double what it needs to be to achieve Passivhaus certification.
The site cabins were collected at the end of the day (so still showing in the photo below).
