Ok this is the upstairs starting to take shape - this is looking down the side of the showerroom in the rear bedroom
This is the showeroom from the other side (looking towards the back of the house)
Stairs had gone in.....just. Lots of shouting and swearing as they went in.
And this is around the point things started to get noticably worse. This is some of their plasterboarding:
If the gaps were not bad enough- these 2 boards were no supported at all at the edges.
And where they did join it wasn't any better:
This is the infamous lintel that was messed up 3 times (twice after being told what he had to do by the architect. The top 2 are the 8" beams lying flat against the ceiling, instead of being vertical. We had words regarding this but he was adamant that he was right and pretty much said that we didn't know what we were talking about. I got the architect to have a look and he said it had to be fixed. the 2 4"x2"s nailed underneath were his next attempt. there was supposed to be a shoe/hanger but wasn't.
I emailed the architect a picture of this and I was promised it was all going to be fixed. This is what we got next:
Anyway this is the new stairs in all their glory or they would be if there were complete (they bought a straight one and were going to build the winders themselves but that wasn't done when this was taken)
Ok last couple for tonight. this is the loft starting to take shape (although note the interesting hole in hte plasterboard at the top of the coombe:
And this is the showeroom after being plastered:
It was by far the best bit of plasterboarding and plastering that was done.
