Our builders have completed the top floor floors on Cancello Est. It has been an interesting engineering project to ensure that the property is stable and now earthquake proof.
A metal frame was secured to all the outer walls and "pinned" through the meter thick walls. Then a metal grid floor was welded on covering the entire floor space in every room. Apparently, this structure will hold everything tight and secure and reinforce the floors and walls. I guess the old lady is now well corseted and all her featured tightly knitted together, keeping her firm and secure against anything Mother Nature may throw at her in the future!
Next stage is the underfloor heating and the finish touch - the 16th Century honey coloured tiles.
