We're Done! - Over to Henley Now!!!

Well, the demolition company has completed the work and the lot looks great! It's relatively flat and we're hoping that it will be level enough to not require a retaining wall, saving us some money that we'll no doubt put back into the project one way or another! Henley has been informed that we have completed this stage, along with everything that we have needed to do on our end. They will now order the second soil test & survey as well as a re-establishment survey and once that is all completed, they will go back to the drawing board in relation to the foundation to make any necessary changes to the plan based on the new tests and away we go! We're hoping the slab will get poured in the next 30-40 days. The site may be quiet for the next couple of weeks as we are off to the States, but I'll update you if there is any news from Henley. All updates will now depend on them, so we are looking forward to relaxing and watching the dream in action!

Ciao for now!

Almost there...

Today the rest of anything growing, standing or remaining from the house, deck and shed were torn down and much of it removed! We are hoping what's left will be taken away tomorrow, with nothing much but dirt left and a flattened lot! We need it to be done by then because we are off for two weeks to California on Saturday, so come on guys, pull through! Here's the most recent progress.

What a difference a day makes...

Well the demolition company got started today and rarely stopped, nearly completing most of the work in one day. According to the guy doing the work today, we should be cleared and pretty much ready to hand it over to Henley by the end of tomorrow! Fingers crossed! Check out the progress so far!

Almost there....

Though no work was done today as we had hoped, a large piece of machinery WAS dropped off on our driveway, suggesting that perhaps tomorrow, much of what you have seen in the previous pictures will be gone soon! See for yourself!
