Week ending 26 June 2020

Firstly can I apologise for Friday morning, because I had to leave early on Thursday to take my daughter to the orthodontist one of the ground workers locked the gates when finishing. Unfortunately he used the wrong padlock so when I got there Friday I couldn’t get in, we had to access through the pedestrian gate and then cut the lock off to open the main gates. By this time 2 wagons where waiting to get in, It was just one of those things and hopefully wont happen again.

We have been on site today preparing for the arrival of the crane on Monday, Plots 3 / 4 / 5 and 6 are having the block and beam floor laid on Monday so we have a crane booked along with about 5 or 6 wagons with the concrete beams on.

Apart from Monday deliveries should be just a mortar delivery in the afternoons and 1 or 2 concrete deliveries through the week.

The site cabins have   been delayed until the 10th July, this is because of paperwork to United Utilities and Scottish power being held up. This will be cleared for the 6th July so we have the new cabins booked for the 10th.

Take care everyone, any questions please ask.

Kind Regards

IAN FORBER.

Progress Update

Good Morning all,

I was going to tell you that next week the first delivery of face brick are coming but they arrived at 7.30 this morning.

The bricks we are going to use for the main build are Forterra Victorian mixture, and for the contrasting panels between some windows we are using Weinerberger smooth reds.

I am hoping to have a test panel built soon in the 2 contrasting bricks and when I do I will send a photo.

This week the surface water drainage was virtually completed, we just have the hydro brake to finish off.

We have started the foul drainage now and that should be completed in the new road next week.

Foundations – we have dug out and concreted plots 10 and 11 (bungalows ) in the top corner of the site backing on to Mansefield Road.

 

 

Natural England has just updated the Countryside Code, giving it a slight COVID-19 tweak.

Over the past few weeks there have been various instances (countrywide not necessarily in Kingsley) of people not exactly following the code as they enjoy their local footpaths and green spaces.  Please 

see the poster below ad try and follow its advice when out and about in the country side.

Week ending 19 June 2020

Not much progress I'm afraid due to this horrendous weather.

All foundations are now in to all plots and we are aiming to have to block and beam flooring going on plots 3,4 5 and 6 on Monday 29th June.

The majority of the spoil has now been taken away so the amount of mainsway wagons should reduce now.

The weather forecast for next week is good so hopefully we will be back on track, the bricklayers have asked to work Saturday next week but obviously they wont be using any plant or machinery so will be all quiet.

Have a nice weekend everybody

Kind Regards

IAN FORBER.

Week beginning 8 June 2020

I plan to have the foundations in for the flats and hopefully plots 1 and 2 that will be all the foundations in then.

The foul drainage should be completed to in the new road.

On Thursday morning (11/06/2020) we are having the full site cabins delivered and the current ones removed , the new cabins are 2 @32 ft. 1@20ft and 1@10ft. They are to form the new site compound and will stay on until completion, they will not be stacked as you sometimes see on sites. Because of this, on Thursday morning we may have to park some of our cars in the road on Higher Heyes just to give the Hiab more room to work with .As soon as the cabins are down we can put the cars back on site

Deliveries next week will be just Mortar on Monday, Wednesday and Friday Pm and concrete  as and when needed. Then Thursday the new site cabins. I think there will be 1 block delivery on Wednesday but I will get that confirmed.

Once the new compound is set up and the road is in I am  planning on some sort of open Morning, will more than likely be on a Saturday morning where the site will be safe and I can walk round with anyone who would like to look round. Gail Farley has also suggested this and is going to help me set it up. I will keep you posted. 

Have a nice weekend everybody

Kind Regards

IAN FORBER.
