Initial drawings
The client gave us a drawing of what he wanted. The drawings were very basic but they were enough for us to get some ideas together.

Production of proper drawings
The clients drawing was turned into a sensible plan and an image that we could all agree upon. We then priced the building up.

Preparation of the site
With the contracts signed the site was prepared by the client and the logs arrived on site so that building could be started.
