Second priority > Cleaning

Cleaning was our second priority. 

This house had never been cleaned, inside or out!

Sven started with the outside while I cleaned the inside. 

Out came de gurney! 

The existing concrete driveway was covered with moss and dirt built up over the years. 

The concrete path next to the  house at the front, the slab for the carport (which hasn't been built... yet) and the veranda floor at the back were all in the same condition. 

We water pressured them and even gave the same treatment to the external walls and the roof! 

Goodbye spider webs, dead bugs, green frog droppings, moss and dirt…

Squeaky clean!

Goodbye moss...

Even the roof

And the shed

We were very careful with Kermit's home though (in the laundry sink hole)  as we were told by a written sign put up by the previous owners.

Kermit's home

Our welcoming sign!

Out for a breath of clean and fresh air!

 Now even his/her? mate come to visit.

Male? Female? which one's which?

While cleaning, we discovered concrete open drains that we didn't know existed all around the house. 

We thought it was a nice ground cover plant growing. Well, it was, but in the drains…

The house looks and feels better now!

We deserved a break...

A well earned rest!

Until the next priority...
