Day 1 - First task was to clear the site and remove the fence so the digger could get in. The site was then marked out before |
|
| the foundation trenches were dug. Due to the way the house was built in the sixties these had to be deeper than normal meaning more soil to remove |
|
|
 |
Day 5 - 6 cubic meters of concrete later and some bricks and blocks and the new floor level was reached. | |
| The new drain is dug and the manhole fittings are put into place. The side of the extension can be seen in the background. |

 |
Day 6 - The sun comes out as the ground work team dig the soak-away for the roof water. | |
| Day 7 - Back comes the rain as the foundations for the new patio are dug. Mud, mud glorious mud |  |
