To form the "gable end" the ridge is extended across to the external wall The timber work for the rear dormer is now installed and the existing roof timbers are still in place under the new dormer Internal walls are now constructed for the bathroom and the insulation is also being installed

 

The internal wall around the new staircase position is also installed The dormer is covered with structural sheet timber and the holes for the new windows are also cut out

 

The rear dormer is now felted with breathable membrane before it is battened and tiled to match the existing roof tiles
The inside of the dormer is fully insulated throughout The staircase has now been installed then the hallway plastered and the hand rail fitted The en-suite is tiled and the sanitary ware is installed

 

View of the "quadrant" shower enclosure

 

The main bedroom area has been plastered and the skirting and architraves have also been installed View from the bedroom into the hallway and also the study room
You can clearly see that our loft to the right is fully insulated thus preventing any heat escaping hence the snow remaining on the roof unlike the loft conversion to the left
