It was exciting, to say the least, to see our windows arrive. Most of them anyway. And even better to catch up to this century and have double glazing. With the new insulation in the walls, better insulation in the ceiling and now double glazed windows – we might not even need the hydronic heating! Above – This is Harry’s room. His old window had two panes of broken glass (John mowing the lawn and hitting a stone, and John chopping wood sending a chunk into the glass), and the awning opening never got much fresh air through. Still waiting on the glass though. Harry’s room has no plaster left – that got removed for insulating, and no ceiling – that got removed to do something about something or other upstairs, and he now also has wet carpet – that’s because the builders turned the water on before checking if there were any open taps. There were. Could be another insurance claim, together with the fence.
And here (below) are the big sliding doors alongside the new bathroom in the extension. The hallway will be lit by external lights on the overhanging eaves outside. Nice heh?
Upstairs, we finally had the big triple sliding windows installed in the Garden Room.
I should add that by Friday just gone (that’s mid August) there is glass in about half the windows. It arrived with a crane to lift some of it up to the first floor. I guess 160kg is a bit much for Workcover. There are no photos – but rest assured, you can see straight through.
