I’ve done one of these posts for the last few years – a ‘looking back’ on the year behind us and what we’ve achieved within the home and our renovations. This year we haven’t tackled a great amount of stuff, but the things we have done has seriously improved the house and how we use it. Last year we didn’t even have a kitchen and we were surviving solely with the outside garden tap at our only downstairs water source. I’m pleased to say things have changed greatly over the last 12 months and we’ve now officially ticked off the two major renovation jobs within the house. So – here’s what we’ve achieved…
Finished the Kitchen
Repaired Rotten Joists
One of the second biggest DIYs this year was repairing the rotten joists of the dining room. It was a job and a half, involving supporting the floor, re-bricking parts of the wall and praying we’d done it all right. Full information on what we did and how here, but this was definitely a job we were both very proud to have done ourselves! It hasn’t made any visual difference to the room, but we can now rest assured the floor wont fall in 😉
Renovated the Dining Room
Built Decking
Updated the Inner Hallway Porch
Painted a Pattenered Floor
