Glutton for Punishment - Yes 2 at Once!!

 What can I say?  If I had planned for both to happen at once, well never, but here we are. Be sure to read the previous post for the main event - this is just a frustratingly slow sideline.

First we built a cupboard into a void in a bedroom - these flats have no storage space! Well, it's almost done ...

    

Who realised it would take over the whole flat and become uninhabitable ...
this before an UNRELATED water leak occurred in our flat dripping downward to the neighbour.

Before
As we enjoy spending time in this seaside town, we thought to make the flat brighter and more useable we would move some doors and resite the washer & dryer into a long cupboard, now divided into two and opening both sides! Pictures to come.

During - Ok, the builder is making [slow] progress.


Here's the new door into the lounge (picture taken from opposite direction),

and an internal window where the old door was.  
This creates a big space for a window-high storage cupboard into the triangle space.

Standing inside lounge looking through new lounge doorway towards new kitchen door.
New door is moving from white frame to the area on the right (towards open wood door).

Here's a new fire-rated pocket door into the kitchen.
This gives us a better layout for a [future] new kitchen and better communication into the lounge.

Ensuite Our ensuite bathroom coming along disrupted for the new washer/dryer cupboard.

Can you tell we are on the beach?
I am selecting some Flotex bathroom carpeting - good on the feet and takes water too.


After - watch this space - one day we will be finished!
