Flat progress


Sunday, April 6, 2008

I guess this post has been long over due, updating how the DIY has been going. Things have been quite busy and lot’s of progress has been made, here’s a few snaps with some updates.

Above: Showing the state of the front room before

Above: The front room as it is 1st thing this morning! Very happy with the final delivery of the sofa, at least now there is something to sit on.

Above: Boxing in some very messy pipe work in the kitchen. Bit of 1 X 2″, ply on the front, sorted!

Above: Kitchen is finally getting a fresh lick of paint on the walls. Just need to renew and rehang all the internal door in the flat. The Hallway is complete apart from the carpet, photo’s of that to arrive later.

And finally …

If your about to sort out any wiring, always switch off the electrics at the mains. I was shifting the main switch to the shower [Shown above], thought I’d turned off the mains but hadn’t and discovered this moments after taking the photo! It was only because I have a modern junction box which tripped the fuse fast enough [in about 0.00003 seconds!] that I’m able to write this post today … !
