The bedroom roof tiling has moved on this week, with the roof approximately 3/4 covered. There's a valley gutter yet to be leaded, 1/4 of the roof to be tiled and the ridge tiles to be put in place. That'll then be the bedroom roof finished.
Fortunately Ben's Reclamation http://www.bensreckyard.co.uk/ has just moved up the road from us so we were able to get the reclaimed ridge tiles on Saturday, and it wasn't too big a deal that we got the quantities wrong first time round and had to go back!
The red cedar fascia and barge boards are on order so hopefully they'll turn up this week to allow the shingles to be started on the kitchen/diner.
Both our window suppliers seem to be having problems with their programme and delivery has slipped back...
Meanwhile we continue with the mission to find a kitchen supplier and product we're happy with - visited Ministry of Pine in Timsbury on Saturday and will be having discussions with them to see if they can supply us with what we want.
