Wardrobes

The lovely brown wardrobes are getting a make over, first coat of primer / undercoat going on. Also going to add some modern handles, should hopefully look like new when finished.

Lets hope the 2nd coat looks better...

Painting

Started painting today - 2 coats on the bedroom and one on hallway so far.

Final Plastering

The plasterer returned yesterday and has started on the master bedroom.

Landing, hallway and stairs start tomorrow.

More stripping!

Stairs and hallway, note the OAP rails have now gone!

Master bedroom, at last we have lost the flock 1950's wallpaper!

New bedrooms

3rd bedroom, replastered and painted. Floorboards painted white for now (not putting carpet down until new boiler / pipework done)

2nd  bedroom, all painted .

2nd bedoomr. We're not sure about the stripped doors, but we're leaving them for now.

Spring is here!

First mow of the year!

Crocuses everywhere. Shame about the weeds.

Snowdrop valley.

The lone Daffodil.

Ta-dah! One new bathroom!

Whew! 9 days is a long time, but its finally completed. Its looking good and we'll be able to use it properly from tomorrow.

 

 
 

 

The tiles are up and we can see how much brighter the room is going to be.

New bath fitted

The walls have all now been plastered and the bath partly installed. 3 downlighters with dimmer installed. At last we can start to see how much of better space it will be.

Bye bye to the old avocado suite....

Hmmmm, lovely old suite...










New shower bath going against this wall













New pipework being laid under floor

This wall was pulled down and put back up again, 5cms further back so we could get a full size 1700mm bath in.

Most of the plaster fell off against this wall, so its all been ripped back.





Today we had the old bathroom ripped out. So long to the 1970s avocado suite. Works are expected to take 7-10 days and as you can see most of the plaster fell off so we're having to have it completed replastered. More pics to follow.
