Gable End Covered, First Stones and Loft Insulation


The loft is almost completely insulated. I don't even want to think about Henrik up high on the ladder but there is much more to be done in the remainder of the roof.


The first stones were applied to the firplace surround this weekend.  The time consuming part is choosing which stones to set in place; cementing them in place is actually reasonably quick.


Henrik finished putting the Hardiplank on the gable end.  Now it just needs a coat of grey paint and that part of the house is complete.

Continued Reno Progress

The house has been wrapped in Tyvek and Henrik has started the Hardiplank on the gable end.
Insulation is underway is slowly being completed.

The fireplace surround has had the scratch coat applied; once that sets then the stones will be put in place.
