Week Thirty-one – The carport is framed

The last of the steel-work goes up but there is still some ironwork to be done on the roof.




With all the roof sheeting done save the bit where the carport cuts in, there’s still a fair bit of flashing required and with rain forecast, some sarking goes up to act as temporary flashing and does the job during a good downpour.



It is replaced the following day by the real thing and it doesn’t rain for another ten days.



The flushing continues its never-ending journey and it's looking great and the tilers get things waterproofed in readiness for the screeding.




Meanwhile off site, light shopping is happening. Thankfully most of the rooms with have standard LED down-lights but we need to decide on three pendants, kitchen lights, stairwell lights, front veranda light and wall lights for the upstairs bedroom. Too many shops, so much on-line, too much choice.
