So who does that arm (circled) belong to? Is that where you buried the building inspector?  :-\ ;D

A little more progress as the roof structure goes on, the four hardest cuts (the valley rafters, which are doubled up) are complete and fitted.

Nice job Mark. When the steels are in, can you keep the ceiling line smooth coming out into the extension?

Current estimate is for roof on by end of October, then:

Fit windows and door
Electrician first fit (could do myself but the poxy regs wont let me)
Insulate ceiling
Install steels
Remove wall
Insulate floor
Fit under floor heating
Screed floor
Plasterboard ceiling
Install and board stud wall
Plaster walls in extension
First fix gas and water
Install kitchen
Paint and finish kitchen
Paint and finish man cave

Then its onto refurb of the existing rooms

I would estimate easter next year for sign off.

I thought you could do the sparks, but it needs to be tested and signed off by a qualified sparky?
