Catching up with a few photos from some of the jobs I’ve been involved with over the last year or so. All aspects of building work covered.

Knock through from the back end of last year, opening up two rooms into one to create a kitchen/dining room. A few doorways blocked up and a couple of doorways made to help maximise and utilise the space inside the house. Building work and plastering done on this one. The customer also chose to install underfloor heating throughout the ground floor whilst we were on with the renovations. As well as the new kitchen going into the newly made room.

Ibis Youth u11’s vs Kendal United Rockets……a game played with great effort and spirit.
Some fantastic pieces of football from both teams and brave defending kept the sidelines entertained throughout.
Roo capped off a great first half by bagging his first goals of the season ⚽️⚽️ after some impressive solo runs from the left wing.
Onto the second half, Roo grabbed his hat-trick goal ⚽️ and Alexander, on his final appearance for Ibis, grabbed his first goal for the club ⚽️💙 some things are written in the stars 🌟
Well done to everyone!

Nameplate at home all finished up on the front wall. Many thanks to Julian Gardner for his stone carving skills and artistic talent. 👌🏻 Alongside the house number we’ve had a carving done of the Lion and the Lamb atop Helm Crag, which has been one of our favourite Wainwright walks done as a family. The slate used came out of a fireplace that was removed from a job, bullnosing strips to create a surround for the nameplate.

Garden makeover completed in Kendal. Levelling out the bottom area and adding steps to allow access into the tiered planting section of the garden. Creating a mud free and easier to maintain space for the customer. Turning over of the soil has produced random little areas where bulbs are emerging between the crevices of the rockery stones.
