Getting plastered!

Well today saw the first of the plaster going on the exterior of the house. This layer has small polystyrene beads imbedded in it and after this layer, there is a layer of re-inforcing mesh and two more layers of standard plaster. The stairs also went in today so the new look at the entrance is now becoming evident. These stairs will be covered in oak wood flooring.

Our first setback saw a rainstorm on Friday damage some of the ceiling panels that had been installed just the day before. About a quarter of the ceilings has been removed and will be replaced tomorrow at the builders expense. Two parapets on the roof were awaiting cladding and leaked. Bugger!
