The making of the attic

Stage 1
Laying of the metal steel foundation. Work stops for approx 3 weeks. Round 1 of the cleaning process was the worst as the welders did their work in the house (attic area). The scary part was the bits from the metal everywhere on the floor and walls..


Stage 2
The carpenter started to fill in the wood for the foundation and stairs. it took them approx 3 days. Cleaning process also took a toll on me cos there were saw dust flying everywhere. Jaden even caught eyes infection due to the dusts.



Stage 3
The plaster ceiling guys came. Their work was the fastest. I think it took them abt 3 hours to complete their job but they were delayed from their scheduled appointment as their worker fell sick.

The hanging cabinets in the attic, one of the door not fixed.

Completed hanging cabinets.

View of the wardrobe and cabinets downstairs.

Metal guys came again. To my horror, they cut metal indoors again to fit the rails properly.



Still waiting for the carpenter to fix the wood at the hand rail. Final touch on the brand new attic will be fixing of the lights and fans. Suey one...Electrician did not turn up and don't even hv guts to call.

A very tiring process and a piece of advise if u cud not cope with the cleaning process after the end of each stage, get all reno done b4 u move in.
