WEEK 36 - Arch gone (Delay = 20 weeks)

We've achieved some half-decent improvements internally over the last few months and the hall is the room which has seen some of the greatest benefits. As the temporary plywood wall - which protected the rest of the house while the arch was being demolished - was removed, it became apparent that the original objective of creating a brighter, spacious, hall has been achieved. Next comes repairs and plastering to the walls and corners; redecoration of ceilings, walls and staircase,;plus electrical fittings. But this time we'll hold back on the painterwork so we don’t have to redo the whole lot before the building crew moves off site.
