Saturday 20th June<\/h3>\n

Started painting the new utility room, this work continued on and off throughout the week.
Most of the painting was completed by my wife, Susan.<\/p>\n

Since I had changed my mind on the layout of the room, I also needed to relocate the radiator, and it was now to be posttioned under the window.<\/p>\n

So I cut out a channel for the radiator pipes along two sides of the floor screed.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately I did not take any pictures of this work.<\/p>\n

Sunday 21st June<\/h3>\n

Trial fitted the radiator to see if I had made the trench wide enough to accommodate the pipes from the floor to the radiator itself.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

As it turns out, I needed to open out a couple of areas a little more so the pipes could run vertically.<\/p>\n

Saturday 27th June<\/h3>\n

One wash coat of 50\/50 paint\/water and two top coats of paint later and the painting is complete.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

 Moved the Washing machine and tumble dryer back in.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

 Same for the freezer<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

These items will need to move out again when we tile the floors. <\/p>\n

Sunday 4th July<\/h3>\n

Extended the pipes for the radiator and re-screeded that section of the floor<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

 I also shortened the pipes for the sink and washing machine.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Wash coat of 50\/50 paint\/water applied to the cinema room<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

 view from window end<\/p>\n
