Week 14

Today's visit didn't bring many surprises unfortunately, window in the kitchen has been realigned into the correct position, downpipes installed, Alfresco door finished, the board above the garage is there now, and not much else has changed.

   

    

Week 13

I finally got to meet our SS this morning, an early start to the day with our catch up on site at 7:30am.

Alfresco door was replaced this morning, kitchen window was also being adjusted into the correct position. Kitchen cabinets have been assembled, well the core of them as we are still waiting for the correct finish on doors and draws.

Laundry cabinets installed, although another mistake where a long bench has been installed and I only wanted the trough as I like a top loading washing machine.

Bathroom and ensuite cabinetry has been installed also. The house is coming along quickly now, my SS that the plasterer's will be back onsite tomorrow and then the painter's and bricklayer's will be in next week.

A few pictures from today's visit.

 

Week 12

It certainly has been a week of drama at the block! Bushfires were raging this week in and around Kilmore, lucky for us we were unaffected, but many in the Kilmore have lost livestock, and several poor souls lost their  homes.

The Kilmore-Lancefield Rd was road blocked by police for several days, so much to my surprise when I arrived Sunday morning finding a tradesman there cleaning the bricks, they look beautiful.  The other tradies were back in asap as well and they have certainly been busy since my last visit.

Doors, architraves, eaves (cement sheeting up) are now all complete. The hebel was also done yesterday, I quite like the look of it, but will like it even more once it is painted (Light Leather).

Cabinetry has started to be installed in the kitchen and laundry. I am still waiting for the correct kitchen doors and draws to be delivered.

The new alfresco door is sitting inside the garage waiting to be installed, I think it will look much nicer than the one currently there.

I did discover a major concern today though, the kitchen window is not in the right position, I double checked the house plans and kitchen window elevation and then checked it against the display home, and yep it is definitely wrong. This is going to be a major drama I just know it.

Update: PD contacted me bright and early Monday morning and kitchen window and alfresco door are both booked in to be done on Thursday, I also have a 7:30am meeting in Kilmore with my SS that day, I will be up and on the road very early!
