Dust - 100, Me - 0
Over the last couple of weeks, two structural walls have come down. To the left is the old external wall (at the back is the extension) and on the right was the wall separating the old back room from the kitchen. Despite yards of plastic sheeting and duct tape the dust that drifted into the rest of the house was immense - I came home to find the hideous red swirly hall carpet had turned a lighter shade of grey.
Where you can see an old RSJ (just about, where a hole is knocked in the old plaster) on the right above the old kitchen, we will be putting in a stud wall and door so the area with the sink and washing machine will become a utility/WC. Building Control have approved the installation of the new steels so that's the last we'll see of them until completion. Yay! Just the small matter of plasterboarding, plastering, levelling the subfloor, fireplace and decorating plus many many more little jobs to go before we even start doing exciting things like installing the new kitchen and flooring *sigh*.
Still, it won't be hard to improve on this, will it?!
