We’ve been down in Glasgow the last few days picking up some bits and pieces for the house and visiting friends and family. Used to work at Dulux so managed to get a discount on our paint which took a huge chunk off. Can’t believe the price of things these days, for that pile of paints, a few rolls of wallpaper and some other painting supplies it would have cost a grand full price!! Good quality paint so should only take 2 coats at the very most and will be nice to start seeing colours on the wall. Going to try getting at least one coat on before any finishings to save the cutting in around skirtings and door frames. We bought some internal tongue and groove cladding for in the porch too so wet jackets aren’t sitting right against the wall.
The guys have finished off the cement board on the outside of the house and fitted the doors and windows in the workshop since we’ve been away. Once the roof ridge is on we should be able to transfer all the boarding out of the house into there and start on tiling the floor. Everything is taking longer than we thought and reckon this next few months will be a slog but it’ll be worth it.
