Another big week of changes on Laura and Chad’s renovation.. not a lot moving at the front of the house while we wait for amendments to the building plans, but that doesn’t mean we have nothing to do..
We did get to a major milestone today.. broke through the first footing from the house to the existing garage.. this is massive; always the hardest to break.. especially this close to the house and 1.2m lower than the house..
Jobs for the week have been demolition of a very dodgy staircase.. well built from brick, but bit to steep for BCA’s and a complete waste of space.. so a per usual.. we have multi ou posed an area.. stairs have moved and now has a small garden shed built into the retained area.. oh and a start to the new Catio.. lol. This was going to be the last job, but with investigative cats and realistically the very back of the block.. it should be the first.. This was the only part of the section that was used as a dumping ground, wasted space and this is definitely the best use of the area.. limestone alls, paving, water tanks and reticulated lawn to follow.. but it may have to be sit for the site clean up, garage formwork and initial concrete pour.
