Though the garage is not yet finished the builders have now started on the house extension at one of Steve's places at Baj.Here are some pics of the progress to date. |
House on the left, garage on the right and that window in the house will become a door. First one has to prepare the area
|
First let's lay a plan of the extension in timber on the ground and if we're happy we continue |
|
|
We continue and the lowest part is a basement area so it's a fairly deep hole needed. |
From the existing house the extension comes this way towards the new shed/garage |
|
|
Prepared for foundations |
Foundations done |

Preparing for the floor |
In comes the concrete pump and the floor is underway |
|
|
Laying the floor of the extension |
Floor of basement completed |
|
|
The walls are commenced |
Up five layers and the bricks are filled with concrete and trinforcing rods |
|
|
Then the walls are continued until the floor of the next level is reached |
Fill all the blocks with concrete again and it's reaty to have the gound level floor added at the same level as the existing house. |
