Outbuildings: Week 40, Day 2

No contractors on-site today; the main build team are due back tomorrow to start working through the ‘snagging’ list.

Having completed the modest area of wall tiling (two 2m2 sections) for the shower the other day, I was able to fit the instantaneous electric shower unit to the tiled wall so the plumber can connect its mains water feed at their next visit.

The short stub of 15mm copper pipe in the photo is just to test the routing of the electrical cables around the pipe – the final feed pipe, which will be visible above the tiles, will be chrome.

In due course, the shower will get a simple folding glass screen facing the shower head.

The floor laying team were back to finish off the waterproof vinyl flooring in the Utility Room and Shower Room, with most of the time spent welding the seams between the vinyl sheets. That clears the way to finishing off the Shower Room – fitting the sanitary ware and checking the foul drainage connections.

There was also a site visit by the Architect to prepare an initial snagging list and a separate visit by the Building Control officer.
