The Cladding has Landed

We were fearful of having to live with an unclad extension for months, if not years in view of the lock-down.   The 50+ cladding panels were were mainly of different sizes and of complicated individual profiles.  As reported earlier we found a firm in Burnley - Central Sheet Metal - who could do the job right now.  Not only could they make the panels the could be powder coated to match the existing ones - RAL number 7012 if anybody's into that sort of thing.   The painters turned the job round in less than a week and today - 12 days earlier than expected! - they arrived, and mighty fine they look too.

Here are parapet panels, first to be offloaded.  Splendidly wrapped and protected and being unwrapped by Central's founder and boss Ray Scaife:

 Each panels has been clearly numbered:
 Some with a detailed worded description too:


The final picture shows the colour match between the old (rear and ever so slightly faded after 8 years) and a new panel (front)
