The floor are finished with wooden parquet. It is quiet a simple but elegant interior. Quiet enough for the visitor to be entertained.

All the interior furniture's are simple and zen.

Laying of plumbing pipes and steel reinforcements

We are now on laying of plumbing pipes and steel reinforcements for the basement floor area.
But before that we have poured concrete screed and leveled the floor. and also we have installed the proper water proofing membrane or material.

We used Sheet flex water proofing membrane

40 mil (approximately a light 1/16") thick elastomeric sheet membrane that features a 2" double-stick lap joint to enable quicker sealing of side seams while creating a water tight seal to assure waterproof defense. 

This is the other side of the project of the basement floor area. Almost done laying the steel reinforcement bars. and done also installing the plumbing pipes for the drainage. 

Subsequently we are almost ready for the pouring of concrete for the basement floor rough finishing. 
 

Excavation for the Project

 Excavation for one of our  projects. We now started excavating for the footing of the building structure. It is not that easy, since the site was in the middle of a neighborhood. We keep an eye of the workers always, So we would not bother the other properties. This project has 3 floors with basement parking on it.

 We then put support structure for the other fence wall of the neighbor to prevent it from falling down as we continue excavating.
