Pitfield makeover 4

After cleaning up the side of the house we now move around to the back to continue the ‘demolition’ work.

   

Picking up from the clean-up along the side and turning the corner we need to remove that illegal timber gate that somehow became part of the spa fencing.

Pitfield makeover 3

Moving on from the gate repair next job is to clean up this side of the house that has beams between the house and the fence with shade mesh on top.

Remove all the rotten beams that sloped down from the fascia to the top of the fence along with the shade mesh and drill out the joist hangers that were pop riveted to the fascia.

Pitfield property makeover 1



Big project for the next few weeks to help the older daughter prepare her property for sale. We have a job list so loaded the car last night and hopefully thought of everything I might need.

Chook annex rebuild – Part 10

Wire barrier skirt - Finishing

Weather didn't look to good this morning and surprised it cleared as well as it did so back out to finish stapling the wire skirt to the base timbers so we can screw on the plinth boards. The final bit for this phase of the job is to back-fill and level the soil - all of a sudden the site looks neat and tidy.

Finished along the back, Speckles and Misty are inspecting the job.

Another new toy for kitties.
