Progress report Week 1

Last Friday I was looking forwards to the demolition of the garage the following day. Since then we have lost a garage, lost an outside cupboard, gained foundations for most of the outline of the extension and had 3 different skips on varying bits of the front garden!!! It's been a good week with fantastic weather so we've been very grateful for that.

The view from the current bathroom window shows the missing garage.

The foundations start and the rather large skip on the drive is now 2/3 full of blue/grey clay. photos

Day 1. The Builders arrive!!!!

 

Where a garage once stood for 70 years!!

 

 

A seriously heavy skip ... we even added the heavy wooden posts to this before it was collected.

 

Here is my pile of metal and plastic .. to go to the tip!

 

A very nice Skip man. So I gave him the lead flashing as a tip!

 

I couldn't resist this one. My car in the back garden. Never to be repeated! EVER!!!

 

The builder arrives, impressed with the removed garage and he is pleased to tell us that we wont need to take down Eddie's wall.

 

An hour later a seriously large skip arrived! Digging starts tomorrow!!!! Scary!!
