New Door Day

This is exciting! Richard Hayhornthwaite who’s team built and installed the windows is back with the front door and small bathroom window, plus a few flashing pieces for around the sash windows.

The little window is in, in no time at all and he’s brought some extra pieces to nail to the windows to make up the gap between the rough stone and the sash frame, painted in the same colour which look really good.

The door is what I’m quite excited about though. We were originally looking at putting in a barn-door but as we wanted to recess it a little, this just wouldn’t have worked really and what arrives is really well made and reassuringly chunky. Again, pre-painted the fitters get it in without much fuss and before long, we’ve got a finished, sealed and weatherproof building.

I was initially really reluctant to get someone else to build the windows and doors but having tried my best, there was no way I was going to come close to the quality Richard has managed. It all looks really smart, so now it just needs signing off by the client (..Rachel!).
