Anyone for a Slab

We now have a slab. We dropped around to the block this evening after work to see the progress and were surprised to find our builder and the concreter still there. Apparently they had been a bit let down by their concrete supplier not getting the trucks there on time. everything seems to be OK, it's just taking longer to dry!

Anyway, here are a couple of pics.

Pool is done, and so is the blockwork

Time for another quick update.

They have finished concreting the pool, and it looks a lot bigger than we thought it was going to be. At least it now gives us a bit of perspective on the size of some of the rooms.




They have also now done the blockwork and are ready to pour the slab today.




So, hopefully the slab will be poured today and I can head over after work to take some more pics. Then we are meeting the builder on site on Saturday, by which time the ground floor frame is supposed to be up.
