David, local garden shed builder making a great job to my design, I've been mucking in today sorting the roof which is a bit complicated being half like a conservatory's and back half solid, with ventilation back and front. But it's coming along ok so far.

If I had a loft like that barnie I would be moving in.

Regards.

Same, same neighbours shouldn't be a problem I suspect Misty when Barnie gets it up on site etc. Bit concerned thou from my end here for what I see there, with the corners as such as I suspect dampness over time could maybe just creep inside over time.

Nowt better than a new loft, give you a buzz

looking good colin, making a nice job of it .......like the ventilation cut outs at the bottom .

Ran out of daylight so I just blocked up the doors and windows for now, but it's up anyway!

Still plastic trim to sort along the front of polycarbonate roofing, guttering to fit etc

Be a while yet as dark nights and 10 HR shifts spoil the fun!

coming along very nicely colin ...is the roof part polycarbonate on a pent roof sloping to the back ?

Yes Darren, higher at the back with polycarbonate all along the front, about half roof clear, half solid. Still need the roofing sheets cut and fitted which clad the back half and overhang the poly. It's only 5 ft deep as garden is long but narrow.

should be nice and light I like the design colin ...birds will be nice and tame with narrow loft atb with the rest of the project

Forget the pigeons O/S I'm that impressed here etc I want/wish to move in as such  .

Wall lining inside maybe. I put plastic cladding also on outside- when loft was made of wood. Creosote, or such, otherwise outside
I just limed the inside of the brick and tiled one. Also the inside painted with lime solution. Work for next year maybe.
But then I feel you have looked well into such. Good to see a sloping roof downwards .. see any vermin on top eh!
Mind it is shaping up very well and looks good.

Another loft, like yours in side I put Polystyrene between and covered with a wood lining. Was the chip board from pallet square covering. That was also free wood lol. Warm in winter and cool in Summer. J.M.O.
