13. The bricklayers are back.

Another day's work from the bricklayers sees the rear extension almost up to wall plate.

Meanwhile, I get to work on the existing side elevation...

The old fascia boards and windows are removed, and an opening is made for a new window. Any loose brickwork is removed and the joints are raked out ready for repointing.

Finally, another day from the brickies sees my week of demolition put right. Bricks for the patching up have been reclaimed from elsewhere on the job so the joins can't be seen.

Next week should see the return of the scaffolders for the final lift.
