July 2005 - The Start! Concrete pilons laid 30m down for stability
|
Steel reinforcement and wooden casing for making the concrete base
|
Base complete and steel erected to support the walls
|
|
|
|
|
The concrete pillars are finished...
|
...and so is the basic shell, supported by scaffolding until the concrete sets
|
Time to inspect the roof with our builder
|
|
|
|
|
Now the roof is concreted and the scaffolding gone
|
Still some wooden planks downstairs...
|
...But the shell is now complete. Time to let the concrete rest
|
|
|
|
|
3 months later...the brickwork begins
|
Followed by a thin layer of concrete over the bricks
|
Then the electrician makes lots of holes in the brickwork!
|
|
|
|
|
The plumber arrives with lots of pipes!
|
Our stonework takes 6 weeks to complete
|
Underfloor heating pipes - a must for the winter months in Cyprus!
|
|
|
|
|
A scree layer is put down to cover all the pipes
|
Then our italian stone floor tiles can be laid
|
The pool is dug out and the casing laid ready for the concrete shell
|
|
|
|
|
Our natural wood windows are put in by Yianni, our carpenter
|
Along with the kitchen, hand built in his workshop
|
Finally the bathrooms are fitted and the end result after over a year of construction is...
