Transformation of an interior space

I have not been so excited about the construction for such a long time! Sheeting up the interiors have transformed the spaces dramatically - what a difference it made! Now finally I can see the progress...we are 'moving forward'!  We are so happy to see how the spaces are turning out...

Getting ready to plaster!

The new wall insulation is in!

The ceiling furring channels are getting fixed in place
Sheeting up the ground floor ceilings
J admiring how it's all starting to come together...

Acoustic lagging

Our own attempt at lagging the pipework before they get concealed within the wall and ceiling cavities.
We wrapped insulation around all the stormwater and sewer pipes to help dampen the noise from the hydraulic services.

More demolition

George, our plasterer, and his team, moved into the space to begin the first step of transforming the interior space. But first, we needed to see more demolition work done to the front house.  The existing hard plaster was stripped to allow the walls to be plumbed and straightened, creating a clean base for the new plasterboards.
