No Scaffolding.....

It has been a while since my last post, we have been busy with the internal rough-out. The plumbing, electrical and air-con are all done. Last weekend we insulated the walls and ran all the cables for the theatre and house speakers. The painter has started with the rockcote finish and hopes to be completed by weeks end. Today the gyprock arrived and the installers will start on Thursday and have plans to work over the weekend to get it done. The front photo shows the sealer white finish and the back view shows the completed colour.

Scaffolding Removed

Well it has been a very wet week, with consistent showers most days and today rain fell mostly all day until when I took this photo. The painter has been able to get some work done around the eaves and windows with the rockcoat finish and sealing, now with the scaffolding removed they should have a free run to roll a bit on Friday, fingers crossed for fine weather....

While this has been happening our plumber has been busy roughing in the water supply and will start the drainage on Friday. Our Electrician hopefully will be starting on Friday which will enable us to start installing insulation over the weekend.

Another Weekend....

Well, we had a dry weekend and have completed the gutter guard and roof ventilator. The scaffolding is scheduled to be removed this week so it was a rush to get it all done. The painters have started and have the eaves all but done including the alfresco area. Hopefully this week will see some textured finish on the brickwork. A weekend visit was also made by both our plumber and sparky, ready for a rough in this week but we also received a lovely surprise visit from Herb and Beth with lunch included which made our day. Sunday was spent clearing the site and running cat 5 cable for our network/phone and alarm.

Wall Panelling Commencing....

Hi All, The boys from Freedom Homes have been very busy this week, the eaves are all complete, the alfresco ceiling is complete and the laundry, front and garage doors are on. They even have the rear external wall panelling complete and half of the front.

Roof almost complete...

Hi all, another weekend has past and we spent both days over at the house, we have made some minor changes to a wall in the kitchen to allow for a larger fridge, also cleaned the inside. Most of Saturday was spent installing gutter mesh, not a very exciting job, but one best done whilst the scaffolding is in place. On Friday the Roof Installers must have been busy before the rain as they have all the roof sheets on and most of the ridge capping. The carpenters are due back on Monday to start on the hardy panelling, will keep you posted.

The roofing has started.....

Hi to all my followers. The roof is almost complete, the gutter's are done and the brick work is finished. This shot is taken from the back of the house looking towards the Alfresco Deck. Would be nice if all that dirt was gone....This weekends work involves roof ventilators and gutter guard, hope the weather holds out.

Scaffolding In Place

Friday last week the scaffolding was erected to allow the brickies to work on the upper level. The front is almost finished and the back alfresco wall has been completed. If the fine weather holds out I think they may be finished by the weekend. The second photo is taken from the dining family area looking out the rear door to the alfresco area showing the completed wall.
