The last time I posted an update here was before we went to Ireland (i.e. before August 13th). That's quite a while ago. Since then, the plastering was finished. We now have two coats of paint on the west side (the gable) and the reveals and between the rafters (the visible ends of them) on the north side has also received two coats. Tomorrow evening we're hoping to get the first coat of paint on the north side.
This weekend is reserved for putting in the insulation for underneath the underfloor heating. I ordered 100 square metres of 4cm insulation boards and 100 square metres of 2cm silencer as well as 100 square metres of 0.2mm plastic sheeting and 100m of 15cm high foam for around the entire perimeter. First, the foam around the perimeter goes in (the idea being that the concrete floor should "swim" and should not be connected anywhere, to anything). Then the 4cm boards are installed. Perpendicular to these (and on top of them), the silencer boards are installed. Then the plastic sheeting gets rolled out. At that stage, I can call in Niedermaier to install and connect the underfloor heating. Once that is done, we should (finally) be able to get the concrete floor done.
