So here we are looking from old bathroom into new extension, all will become a bedroom with en-suite :cheers: Fitted the new window. And you can see the new ceiling joists I previously fitted when doing the exterior work/roof. The new ceiling in the extension will float through under the old bathroom ceiling.

Edit: You can also just about make out the 'Wall straps' for the wall plates on the extension. Steel straps basically...

Threw down new boards in the whole lot, one big room now! :thumbright: Old bathroom becoming new bedroom with ensuite to come soon!

Can see where sink used to be on the left wall, and where the original house bathroom ended!

Looking from within the extension, alarm box still on the original outside wall :lol: Can see how the extension sort of becomes a little wider here too.

Starting to add/build the en-suite! :cheers: Can see the old lone toilet window on the right, and just to the side where the dividing wall was. And then closer to camera, where the end of the bathroom was.

Also had the whole of the old kitchen and new extension/dining area floor asphalted. Loved seeing this done, and made it feel much more like a house again
