Day 25: Radiator arrived, outside light added, dodgy plumbing and electrics!

Today we also had the plasterboard put on the walls using the dot and dab method.

Note that all the plumbing was replaced after these photos were taken – it was all done properly by a proper plumber.


Outside light installed

We also had an additional outside light wired up so the back is symmetrical.

It is look pretty good now. And the rain proved that it is all waterproof.

Oh, the radiator arrived today too. One big meaty one to heat the whole room from behind a sofa.
