To ablute in peace

A bath in the downstairs bathroom...


and a walk-in shower with floor tiles draining to a grate in the up.


That makes 2 bathrooms, TWO! bathrooms, meaning we will have the ability to get up in the morning and go to the bathroom without 3 busting children immediately materialising outside the door. When can we move in?

A finished floor

We made a trip yesterday to see the first finish in the house. Our concrete slab has been burnished, sanded and sealed and now has just a final sand and seal to go. We think it looks fantastic!
