Its all go

Hidden in a cubby hole in one of the storage rooms one of the builders continues on the decappage and replastering campaign. This involves chipping off old plaster ascertaining everything structurally sound underneath and then rendering it. Next stage should be chasing in electricity channels before plastering the final coat but Ive found the plasterers getting ahead of themselves or electric boys are too slow so constant eye needed so each stage finds teams in right place at right time.
Looking across from my rented house terrace I watched the builders build the laundry room wall after the medina closed down for the night, woke up it was finished and plastered!!

Last few days have been frantic as the building team expands. As we have Ramadan on the 24th it is imperative to get the terrace finished so we can bring the workers inside. Last night the builders were building the wall of the terrace laundry room which overlooks Talla Sighera the main drag, and started at 8pm and finished at 4am as they can only do it while medina is empty. Today they are putting the ceiling on. On the terrace the electricians and plumbers are finishing their jobs so we can clear the terrace and put the bitumen down and then we are ready for the terrace tilers.
I am back to Spain for 10 days at end of this week leaving everything in Ben and Bacallis capable hands so will probably not file any reports till my return but then will have lots of updated photos of the terrace and interior.
We have also cleared the basement room and one idea is to turn it into a Berber Basement, tent up the ceiling, low tables cushions and chairs; plants with a bar in the corner and a renovated fountain, could look fantastic.
Anyway off to check on my friend Micheals place to get an estimate for his work so Adios Amigos for now!!
