We did a little more work on the outside of the house at the weekend, the step from the low roof to the main roof is now battened and meshed, and we have prepared the edge of the cantilevered roof aswell - but then it rained and we gave up for the day. We will hopefully finish the edge of the cantilevered roof this evening, as long as the weather and our supply of mesh holds out. Then the rest of the week and weekend will be spent doing the remaining side wall and the front door in preparation for rendering which is scheduled to begin on the 10th.

We will also be confirming the appointment of Screed.IT today, to provide our calcium sulphate screed a week on saturday, after they matched a rival quote (saving us £60) and confirmed they are available to do it at relatively short notice.
