South Wall Cladding Beginning to Look Good

 Since the arrival of the final pieces of cladding the weather has been pretty awful with rain, extreme cold and high winds - not ideal.

Today though, Christmas Eve, has been bright, cold and calm enough to position the two lower panels either side of the kitchen outer door.  This is how it looked before:















The panels to be fitted are C2 and C3.  Why those panels first?  They and the lower panels alongside doors and windows have to fit the door and window frames precisely both vertically and horizontally.  The final positioning and spacing of the upper row of parapet panels can then match up precisely too.

Before the panels go on I go over the black Tyvek waterproof membrane seeing to any tears or fixing damage.  I mention this for your amusement and to reassure architect Stuart Green whose reputation hangs by quite a public thread here.  And I know he will come along and inspect!



Ignore the uneven gaps which will be sorted out in the final phase.
