Up the Ladder to the Roof!


During February, the ground floor had a secure ceiling (and the upper floor had a floor!) and the very tall crane came back to lift roofing materials to the second storey.

By mid-February, the roof trusses were in place:

A few days later the roof panels were (almost completely) in place:

It's getting quite exciting now. You can see provision for two dormers (bath/shower rooms) and a velux roof window. In case you're wondering... no, we are not having a silver house! These panels are the insulation to keep our home cosy in winter and cool in hot weather.
