One week to go.




We are nearly there. Practical completion date and inspection is next Thursday the 18th.

We have a garage door now which is better than we thought yay. They still have some painting to go outside on the render, trim and alfresco areas and a couple of patch ups inside on the ceiling where the guy who put the lights in left a gap next to light fitting, I guess he didn't measure accurately in the first place as to the position, and the tiler is about 99% finished. They also have to finish painting the ensuite bathroom which is in the photo I will put up and we need the glass shower screens put in and the mirrors too. These are last to be done.

Our dishwasher and oven will be put in on day of handover because of theft issues.

They have taken down our temporary fencing and cleaned the site. We have had a fencer come out and to give us a quote and we are waiting on that. We just have to try and contact our neighbours for their half of each side, yeah hopefully that works out.

We have chosen our flooring from Western Distributors. We are having Balterio Tradition laminate flooring, v groove in Legacy Oak and the carpet is wool and is called Sisal Place which is a mid brown colour. Laminate is to be done on the 26th and the carpet on the 30th.

Just a few photos to show you and we will take some more next Thursday at the inspection.

wow!your place is looking great! I love the colour of your garage!

We're just behind you I think. Still don't have a date for completion...but it's so close we can taste it!

Just wondering who you're getting quotes from for your fencing? We're trying to find someone to do ours as well (obviously)....same for the driveway and decking. Maybe we can swap notes? :)
