Week ending 26 June 2020
Firstly can I apologise for Friday morning, because I had to leave early on Thursday to take my daughter to the orthodontist one of the ground workers locked the gates when finishing. Unfortunately he used the wrong padlock so when I got there Friday I couldn’t get in, we had to access through the pedestrian gate and then cut the lock off to open the main gates. By this time 2 wagons where waiting to get in, It was just one of those things and hopefully wont happen again.
We have been on site today preparing for the arrival of the crane on Monday, Plots 3 / 4 / 5 and 6 are having the block and beam floor laid on Monday so we have a crane booked along with about 5 or 6 wagons with the concrete beams on.
Apart from Monday deliveries should be just a mortar delivery in the afternoons and 1 or 2 concrete deliveries through the week.
The site cabins have been delayed until the 10th July, this is because of paperwork to United Utilities and Scottish power being held up. This will be cleared for the 6th July so we have the new cabins booked for the 10th.
Take care everyone, any questions please ask.
Kind Regards
IAN FORBER.

Progress Update

Good Morning all,
I was going to tell you that next week the first delivery of face brick are coming but they arrived at 7.30 this morning.
The bricks we are going to use for the main build are Forterra Victorian mixture, and for the contrasting panels between some windows we are using Weinerberger smooth reds.
I am hoping to have a test panel built soon in the 2 contrasting bricks and when I do I will send a photo.
This week the surface water drainage was virtually completed, we just have the hydro brake to finish off.
We have started the foul drainage now and that should be completed in the new road next week.
Foundations – we have dug out and concreted plots 10 and 11 (bungalows ) in the top corner of the site backing on to Mansefield Road.
