Builders there all weekend!

Builders working hard over the weekend to move the job along quicker which is great to see. They were working on installing all the internal doors and arch's around the windows and doors internally. Really starting to look more finished! Showers have also had the base's sealed in both bathrooms.

Kitchen and Bathroom

Island bench - gap for the dishwasher and sink. We are having stone benches that also go down each side of the island bench. Cupboards over the fridge we added in as an extra upgrade. Purchased our dishwasher this weekend which we will put in ourselves.




Island Bench - cupboards facing the dining room. The stone will hang over so that stools can go under the bench.

Stove will sit in gap - cabinets will be installed above and these wont have handles. We have opted to not have any handles put on by metricon and will install ourselves after handover as we didn't really like any on offer.

Cabinets In! 5th November

Went around to the house on Thursday night to bump into our SS working quite late. Was great timing in that we got to run through a few minor issues we wanted fixed before they continued on much further. One in particular was a issue we picked up this week - Our laundry was 30mm out in width and therefore the gap that would be left in the laundry for the washer and dryer wouldn't be enough! leaving us with a major issue.

friday the cabinets were being installed so best case was to get them to cut down the cupboard at installation! Luckily this wasn't such a big deal and was done. Benches and sink also went in on Friday.

Progress made today was visually more then any other day - Plasterer did the last sand in preparation for painting, painter kept working on staining the doors and windows, bathrooms, laundry and kitchen all installed, bench in pantry installed.

The good news was that our SS is confident that with the current plan that we will be in before Christmas!!! While we are not holding our breath it is looking possible especially after the weekend.
