Monday: Somebody's been busy (9/20/10)

Catching up on progress after our weekend guests flew safely home...  They finished the blockwork in the basement.



Moving upstairs, they cut away the area in the floor where the new hearth will be.


And the wall, and the ceiling.  And removed the existing window so they could put exhaust fans in the opening to rid of the sawdust.



They're applying the stonework to the chimney extensions.  We had a little chat about the visibility of the vertical lines of the exisiting chimney, and the builder was unhappy with it too.  Turns out that the lower portion will be hidden by the decking, so it shouldn't be as visible as it is here, but they're going to rework a fair amount of it.
