great progress......................

Well its been a busy week at the house.

Our inspectors report came back on monday and we gave it over to our s/s, which he got the few things that needed doing done on the inside of the house, the outside stuff can wait to be fixed. Which is a credit to him.

This week saw all the roughing in of the heating/cooling,all walls have have been straightened for plaster, insulation has been installed in all the outer walls which have made such a difference,electrical all done just waiting on a couple of noggings that are missing, hebal complete and rendering has begun.looks awesome they have done a great job, but as yet not at lock up,  which i dont think that will be far away because they (pd) will be waiting upon their payment.

Plaster is meant to start tommorow so will just wait and see but hey i must say our s/s has been just great even with all updates on whats happening with the build, hav'nt heard from anyone at the office in quite a few weeks, (b/c) was on holidays for a couple of weeks but least our s/s has keeped us up to date, we are quite happy with that.

Here are a few pictures of whats happening................ until next time.

We are moving forward again..............

Well i have not put up a post for 2 weeks as things were going slow, but all that changed last week when we saw alot happen and it feels so good and promising.

Our s/s was true to his word and said things will start moving now and everything that was organised for last week all happened.

The hebel got moving along as is nearly finished on the outside, all the electrical was roughed in, and the french doors were installed, so its nearly at lockup.

lets hope it all continues.....................here are a few pics.

slow progress.................

Well not alot has happened in 2 weeks, the week before last saw the hebel starting to go up which we got real exicited about.

In the last week week nothing has happened!

We had not heard  from our new b/c so i politely called on wednesday to ask what was happening with our variations,was told she was busy and would call me back, but got to the point of being sick of waiting for a reply, so i asked to speak to a manager, which he did call me back and got things rolling
.
What a shame it took that to get somewhere......

We organized a building inspection with Newhome inspections because there we a few things we were not happy with and thought it would be better to get our own inspector which would give us a piece of mind. He found a few things that needed attending too. So it was worth every dollar.

We had a meeting with our s/s on friday and the poor guy must of thought whats going on!
but after the wednesday session with the office it was just in total fustration that there was no communication between b/c and us.So we let out all our fustrations on our s/s!
But reassured us that he will look after everything.

Anyway our s/s has told us that in the next two weeks we should be at pre plaster and the house will be at lock-up and everything that goes with it.......

Here a few pics of the hebal panelling......................... hopfully our next post will be a positive one!
