Part 2 of the Dream Makeover of Maple Cottage
With the hard winter still with us, it made for heavy going trying to prep the new drain runs and get ready for the concrete pour, 6 full concrete trucks, they were all waiting at the bottom of the very tight and busy street to come in one by one and having to pump it in due to the site conditions, let me tell you, that was best move ever

Part 1 of the Dream Makeover of Maple Cottage
This project had a really tough start as winter kicked in big time, heavy snow and rain seen the place turn into an absolute mud bath, these conditions make excavating the ground really difficult, especially with the depth of the excavation due to nearby trees and the split level design, the sides of the neatly dug trenches ended up collapsing, resulting in us having to shutter the trenches, talk about getting off to a good start

Best Start with the 'Finish' Video, I’ve added a few ‘before’ photos of the bungalow at the start, just to give some perspective
I intend to release a series of video shorts, showing what really went on to create this make over
It’s always a pleasure to be involved from the start with a big project like this, from re designing the whole existing footprint to putting in the final finishes
The effort from the lads who worked this project was second to none, they all deserve credit where credit is due
Like most projects it came with it challenges, winter hit hard but as always, we were up for the challenge and overcome whatever came our way
The attention to detail was pretty intense on this one and rightly so, the clients wanted to make sure they left no stone unturned
It was a pleasure at the end to hand over to the clients their ‘forever’ home, they made me and the whole workforce feel extra special
They often called in with birthday cake surprises for the lads with they favour bands picture, super imposed on the cake haha
Done what they called ‘fish and chips’ Friday, all the lads on site that day, no matter how many, were fed and watered
Constantly dropped off drinks, biscuits, coffee, teas and at the end of the job gave the lads presents, they even bought me a guitar, wow
Their gratitude was second to none and the lads really felt it, you could tell that the lads just wanted to do there absolute very best for this couple
The last day we pulled away from the job was a relief, that we had done what we had set out to do
Also, a sad one, as it was the type of job you would have been happy to stay on forever
