Stairs - well here is a story to tell..potential disaster, which actually does not bear thinking about! When the upper main flight of stairs (from bedroom level to attic) were being installed they were accidentally dropped. They fell all the way to the ground floor..damaging, miraculously, only 1 tread on the main stairs below, and majorly damaging itself. At over 600 lbs in weight had anyone been standing in the hallway they would for sure have been killed!! The damaged tread has been replaced and the upper flight have been rebuilt in situ. They look fabulous I have to say, and the hallway has a really nice open feeling to it.
Attic- all mechanics now installed. the mechanics room, walls either side of the stair well and door frame will now be framed. Flooring to be extended to front of house. Safety balustrading to go at end of floored area. We certainly will never lack storage space in this house!!
Stucco - final coat, which contains colour, almost all on now..just the west side to finish applying. Very happy with the result!
