Day 10 maybe?

It's slow going but the hole is gradually getting bigger. Apparently there's some kind of indestructable rock that might mean we can't go back as far as we want to. Hmm.

Day 6 - Slow progress!

The hole's getting bigger - somewhat slower than planned due to the solid rock under the house. The sewerage has been temporarily re-plumbed to allow the digger into the middle section to dig out. At least another week of jack-hammering. Fun.

Day 4 - A lot of mess and a hole

So jack hammering from 7am - 5pm. Lovely, just what the doctor ordered. We have 2 inches of soil and then solid rock. It's now possible to walk under the house, albeit just to where Trish's desk will be!

Day 1 - Demolition

Site clearance today. We have a skip, no hedge and a very bare tree.



Day 0

Ok, so here we go. Let's start with what it looks like before it begins.
