Gables and facia

They've finished adding in the gable sections to the roof trusses, fixed batons to the trusses and attached the facia all around (pic taken earlier in the day before they'd finished)


They've also moved the windows, which is great, and are going to drill through the brick and get the gas point in...

All sorted so far except for mortar - but that one's too bad, and partly our fault for not being explicit in what we wanted. They really do want to make sure we're happy with the work and I often feel a bit 'slack' when I ask for things without understanding the reason behind it being done a certain way in the first place. In this case the windows were off centre because the framers space them out in x number of bricks.

Actually, looking back through the contract, we were explicit in what we wanted... just hope it gets lighter like they've said.
