stuff you're doing while at home
the new gates are made and weather permitting we'll be installing them tomorrow morning, thanks nev
opening them for the first time will be like 'tadaaa!' where the front's opened up properly for the first time.
i've been umming and aahing about what to for the main floor area inside, from type 1 sub base packed down to road planings with a sprinkle of cherryade (red diesel) to soften the tar packed down to biting the bullet and spending on a concrete floor to do it right the once. dawn said today why don't you concrete the floor? i don't need telling twice i can tell you
so.... gates this weekend, finish the cladding and fit facia boards and gutters next week. friday dawn and me are off to 'sunny' gt yarmouth for a weeks break and i'll be concreting upon my return
neil.
ps, i just had a quick tot up and once the floors done i'll be right around the £2000 mark all in for a 6.5 meter square building. not bad.
the only new things are:- concrete, damp proof and breathable membranes, battens, screws and rawbolts.
all the framing, cladding and doors are secondhand.
