Week 40, Day 3

Week 40, Day 3:

  • More second-fix electrical – notably connecting the supply cable to the meter (which is in a GRP cabinet outside the house) and replacing some of the switchgear used for the temporary outdoor socket.
  • A bit of progress on the second-fix plumbing, installing one of the bathroom washbasins and preparing the others
  • Preparing for the porcelain floor tiles in the bathrooms with a coat of PVA on the chipboard sub-floor followed by “No More Ply” boards glued and screwed into place.
  • Further great work by the plastering team from GC Interfinish – working on the kitchen (ready for the kitchen units which will be arriving shortly) and the rest of the Open Plan area on the Ground Floor.
