PROGRESS
The Stag Construction team has finished the construction of our second extension - they have been absolutely brilliant to work with! The electrics have been done by the super-efficient Hunter Lloyd team and all (ALL??) that's left to do is painting, flooring, restoration of the existing wooden floor, rehanging the curtains and bunting, finding a place for the clock.....etc etc

CONSTRUCTION to 30/04/2024
Great progress! There were unexpected issues with drainage so new pipes and soakaway were needed. Foundations in and brickwork going up.

TREE SURGERY (22 April 2024)
We're so lucky to have such talented people in our community - today local tree expert Josh Higgins (Countryside Services) and his team came to Edstaston Village Hall to tidy up and reduce the height of the trees on the boundary. What a fabulous tidy job. https://joshhiggins-cs.co.uk/
Thanks to our neighbours Doug and Sheila for their understanding and co-operation.

PREPARATION (19-22 April 2024)
We've been working incredibly hard to clear space and empty/remove the shed ready for the footings to be dug. Many thanks to the fantastic team - Sandra, Trev, Anna, Liz, Mike, Neale, Corrine and Bev for (wo)manhandling all the building materials, bricks, slabs, clearing cupboards, providing the most delicious flapjacks etc. So incredibly proud of how our community responds so to a challenge
