Installation of Steels

Builders had a lot of fun putting the steels onto the roof.


The video below shows the first steel being lifter - this was the tricky one as it had to go nearest to the existing building - check out how close it gets to the bedroom window...... Phewww!

Steels in, scafolding up and get cracking with the roof!

I was really keen that the roof level in the extension was the same as in the existing kitchen. The architect initially agreed this was OK, then after he showed his builder around changed his tune and said the extension roof would be the same level as the botton of the steel across the opening to the kithchen. Strange as my builder has managed to construct the roof (and floor) such that joists are at exactly the same level direction as the existing. So good result there. You can see he has notched the roof joists into the steel. The hole in the middle is where the roof lantern is going to go in case you were wondering :-)
