Week 21 - More Internals - 20th Dec

The drylining will be finished this week and a start can be made on the plastering, the Kitchen, sun room and store room need to be finished this so we can paint before the heating system comes on the 4th Jan.

When the kitchen comes in the 2nd week of Jan there cannot be too much moisture in the air else it will be absorbed into the units and warp them so we are getting the back half of the house plastered first so we can minimise this risk. Also the store room must be finished so the heating system can be installed.

We have hired an LPG space heater to help dry out the plaster and are leaving electric heaters on over night to stop the water in the plaster freezing. This would be very bad as the plaster cracks and you have to rip off the plaster and plaster board and start again.....No Thanks.
The space heater pumps out so much heat, within 5 mins the place is like a sauna, and I recon you could cook breakfast nicely on the top of it, maybe we don't need the kitchen??

Paul the electrician has made the power sockets in the sun room live which is great as there are so many extension leads running off extension leads they keep cutting out.

We also have water into the house now and with the really cold weather this week we have been lucky it has not frozen.
