Renovation update

The landscapers have been hard at work for the past week working on our three sets of stairs. Each of them is being clad in “bluestone” (same as the big pavers), and they have had to cut every piece to the right size. The front steps were recently reconstructed from concrete so they went first.

The back steps were existing concrete steps.

For the ones off the back door, they had to first remove the old cladding… which meant jackhammering. I’m sorry to all the neighbours! Thankfully the loud part should be done, though they’re still fitting the new pieces.

We’ve had some shockingly hot days. I was amused to see that the guys turned my clothesline into a shelter of sorts.
