Well, the fun and games are due to start this week.
It took a long time to get everything sorted with the structural engineer which kind of brought the whole project to halt for nearly 6 weeks. But we have got there now and both the structural engineer and building control are happy with the plan.
We have investigated all of the foundations along the whole gable wall end and 50% of it already had sufficient foundations for the move. So we only needed to extend half of the foundations thankfully. All of the foundations are now project out between 300mm and 380mm from the existing wall (we are only moving the wall by a maximum of 40-50mm).
The supporting steels will arrive on Monday and the brick work will start coming down on Wednesday. The gable wall end will be taken down and rebuilt in 7 sections and the builder is hoping it will take 2 weeks to do.
the butterflies will arrive soon I am sure!
