Three more weeks of work are behind. Good progress. House project is 63% complete according to the official statement from chief engineer.

There are not many visible changes, but a lot of work has been done – network and electiric cables placed inside the walls and connections for outlets and switches are prepared, all ventilation pipes are insulated, all water pipes with connectors are done, ceilings are partly covered, sauna is completely insulated, concrete floors in the bathrooms on the second floor are done. Floor heating on the second floor was completed and floor covered with gyproc panels.

We’ve chosen tiles for the bathrooms, toilets and househod room. When fetching them from the shop I considerable underestimated the weigth – had to go twice in a fully loaded car. Almost broke my back carrying 1400kg of tiles from car to the house
Work on car shed has also progressed – mostly on the weekends – and now it is almost complete. Just waiting for warm weather to stabilise to make concrete floors in the storage part.

A fair amount of construction waste accumulated on the site, so today I organised a spring cleaning – separating wood from plastic and dangerous waste and driving most of it to the neares collection point.

Next major step is to get the heating and ventilation in the house running to be able to proceed with painting work and make sure that concrete floors are dry enough before placing floor tiles and parquet.
