Looks like a top job Roger. Nice one 8)

Great stairs - are they oak?

 

[archersam]

that looks beautiful, any chance of a proper house tour????

Lovely job. It just goes to show what a quick spray of Mr Sheen and a feather duster can achieve. Not that I would know...

I've whacked up a load of pictures taken during the project and at the end into photobucket but I'm not sure how to share the pictures in ReadOnly mode.

The staircase is oak as are the floorboards. The doors upstairs are ash.

 

[RogerS]

OK....here they are. Some near duplicates plus the odd stray photo from elsewhere but hope you find them interesting.

Very Nice work therer Roger! AND only 3 years you say? I know people who have been working longer than that and still live in a mess...

 

[devonwoody]

Superb, you should have done the TV program Dream homes, or whatever it is called.

 

[wizer]

Really Nice Roger, it hurts my back seeing the pics. It must be a proud moment. What's the deal? Are you moving in to it or selling it?

 

[motownmartin]

I remember when you started this Roger, congratulations on the completion, is it for your own use or are you selling and moving on to the next project.

OOps, I just noticed that Tom has already asked the question I have asked

 

[RogerS]

Thanks for all the comments, guys. Two years and I thought I would do it in six months :? Probably move in. Couldn't face doing another one.

 

[archersam]

Roger, thanks for that. Loving the openness of the stairs whilst still satisfying the H&S brigade/Building regs!!!!

 

[TrimTheKing]

Very nice indeed Roger

Nice job, Roger.
