Going Up the Wall

The other day, Umberto warned me that he was planning to tear out the bottom half of the window in the upstairs library, to allow for better access during construction. He assured me that he would take "before" and "after" photos to make sure that everything went back exactly as it was. Of course I approved the plan, since it is pretty much the only way to get concrete into the house for the new flooring.

Today, we were much excited to see said scaffolding in place, and to see the continuing work! Umberto and Bogdon are continuing apace, with all the rebar in place for attachment to the steel mesh.
The generator was descending as we arrived



It's now a doorway instead of a window

Not a very wide working platform!

Rebar in the bathroom

Master bedroom

Girls' room

Boys' room



Clearly a great way of moving heavy stuff

Next steps: mesh installation and concrete!

Love,

Alexandra
