It's been nearly 3 weeks . . . . .

. . . . and things have moved on

a little.

We have put some battens up for the plasterboard. (it's taking a lot longer than I thought)

We've started to install the ventilation system (It too is taking longer than we thought)

The first fix electrics are in

and the floor insulation is in 

ready for the heating and hot water installation. (and the windows are protected for tomorrows underfloor heating and screed)

We've even marked out the kitchen units.

It's all looking good apart from . . . . . .

a little problem . . . .

in  . .

the . . .

basement.

We'd assummed this was the last of the winters rain drying out. It had been sat under the piles of ground floor (blue) insulation for months so it seemed a fair assumption.

But todays rain revealed this

which became this within an hour

So now it's back to the groundworks contractors to sort it out, but I don't think they're capable.

We'll have to wait and see.
