Progress on Quotations

This week has seen a number of minor happenings. We have received quotes for:
- carpentry
- brickwork
- roof cladding
- painting (which is not really the important focus atthe moment)
The brickwork quotes seem to vary a bit. In many cases, trades often charge more for the same labour when they are installing more expensive materials, even though the labour-effort required is the same. Brickwork & plaster seem to fall into this category.

We are still anxiously waiting for the excavation & footings quote. This is an important item that has to be sorted very soon, if we are to get started in the 2nd half of February.
