2014-08-03 Master bedroom sealing up
Walls and trims sealed + wallpaper joints trimmed for skimming
Good keep the troops happy! Mmmm Rogue Hop my new favourite beer
You can't see it but there is 20 years of dog hair in that carpet - nice
Not bad for a days work =) Now where's that beer gone??
2014-08-02 Block cladding EQ repairs
A few fallen courses of block from the earthquakes needed to be repaired
Luckily good sized eaves has kept the wall dry =)
You can't make a cake without breaking a few eggs! Demolition is fun
Damaged blocks down - nailed in cavity ties = no good.
Out with the old in with the new
Framing in good condition thankfully!
Ahhh good job Colin (our friendly neighbourhood blocklayer from next door and Castletownbere)
Stepped cracks ground out and re-pointed
