Garage walls completed Aug 2016

 This month the work has focused on finishing up the external walls for the garage/studio, waterproofing the external walls with 2 coats of KA slurry, a radon/waterproof barrier, insulation and a drainage membrane. These are visible on the side view with partial backfill. Various ducts for gas, electricity and comms, and a water pipe were also fed through toward the house site.

When all this had been completed, the garage was backfilled from the large pile of material that had been stacked up for this purpose.

Meantime there has been lots of action off site, the kit has been constructed in the timber frame factory in Poland, and a great deal of planning and ordering has been going on.

The half metre gap in the gabion wall was infilled, once the drainage pipe around the entire wall had been connected up.

The house site was prepared for the insulated raft foundation. The L-shaped edge insulation slabs having been cut to shape to fit the unusual shape of the house.
