Hello,

It would be really great if everyone here could just post one or a few pictures showing the current state of their house.

I'll start right away.

For renovations, it’s best to provide a comparison of before and after the remodeling.

Before March 2014:



After May 2015:

Hi,

Why do you actually have such a huge chimney?

No need to be jealous!

It’s not that big; it only extends about half a meter (1.5 feet) above the roof ridge as required here. It just looks bigger due to the perspective and the point where the chimney emerges from the roof. The latter is because of the stove’s position in the living room.

Best regards,

Andreas

So quite a lot has happened in 4 weeks, but there was easily 1.5 weeks of downtime in there, which could have sped things up quite a bit.

From my perspective, still an enviable pace—at this point, you have definitely left me behind.

Maybe one day we’ll catch up with you.

I do wish you progress well, but moving in immediately isn’t necessary.

@sirhc: well, progress is being made, even if slowly

From the outside, there’s not much new to see at the moment. We’re currently waiting for the garage (delivery delayed by about 4 weeks) and still waiting for the plumber. The tiles were supposed to be installed this week on the ground floor—in the bathroom, guest toilet, and utility room—but this has also been postponed due to another construction project.
Anyway... tomorrow we plan to get the outdoor lighting and start painting next week.
We’ve now postponed our move to early September.

We wish we were that far along as well!

Since the last picture here a few weeks ago:
- Ground floor exterior walls completed
- Ground floor ceiling poured – ventilation ducts embedded again
- Upper floor exterior walls nearly finished
- Drainage pipes installed and sewer connection made
- Strip foundations for the garage excavated and poured
- Garage slab prepared for pouring
- Foundation for the wall at the property boundary excavated and poured

Progress has been steady lately; before that, things were moving quite slowly.
