Progress During July 2009

  • Anna finishes off the basement insulation.
  • The ground water sump, foamglas insulation, radon membrane and rebar cages.
  • Rebar cages going into place.
  • Underground drainage / soil pipes / sewer going in. You can just about see the layout of the bathroom here - toilet on the right, wash basin on the left, shower at the top.
  • The box shuttering at the front is for the sump. This will be filled in once the basement is complete.
  • Sealing some gaps in the inspection chambre prior to the concrete pour.
  • Rebar and pipes all in place.
  • The end of the concrete pump rests waiting for the mixer to arrive. I didn't take any pictures during the pour as my hands were full.
  • 3 cubes of concrete in place and smoothed.
  • The relief after the concrete has gone off.
  • These kind of photos are the result of giving the camera to Anna!?
  • Removing the shuttering and supports.
