DOUBLE STOREY EXTENSION UPDATE - FOREST HALL.
Two roofs cut back and stripped off today ✅
Membrane put on to stop any penetrating water getting into ceilings ✅
Taped down and latted to make it watertight ✅
Pebble dash took off above the roof ✅
Electrics all taped up individually and bagged up and then re-taped again to make them watertight to stop any tripping ✅
All ready to start building upper floor now.
What a mess it is underneath the roof.
Plumbing pipes all over like a roller coaster up and down.
Plasterboards just hidding in roof smashed in pieces.
Chimney stack not structured or supported correctly it has a big hole in it so could capsize.
Other internal walls coming up through the ceiling and supporting on roof joists.
Stack soil/ drainage pipe hidding in the ceiling and just left so odours are travelling around in the ceiling instead of the stack pipe/flue coming through the roof to prevent any smells/odours.
Everythings just been hidding inside of the sloped roof and put in anyway possible.
Not what we wanted to come across as extra work for us to put in but dont know what your going to come across until its been exposed as this should of just been a nice easy take off but nothing my lads cant sort out and get over. A-Team, Proper Grafters 👌💯
We will find the upper floor heights tomorrow, to see where the new floor joists are sitting and cut out internal door way if possible (depensing on measurements) and then get padstone and steels inserted 😀
Flying on this one project we are.
