Pre XMAS

A few things were supposed to happen before XMAS. Not sure if they will get done (as of today 20/12 they had not been) but here's a list of things CG advised would be done before Xmas:

Tiler finish (about 95%done)
Electrical fit off (mostly done but a few errors with putting in double GPOs instead of the quads we had in plans, power points missed and ensuite 3 GPO on wrong side of bench - all rectifiable)
Render completed to alfresco (50% done)
Downpipes installed and plumbed( not done)
Site cleanup and temp fence removed (not done)
Drawers and cabinet drawers installed in kitchen (not done)
Island bench stone completed (half done)
Garage roller door (not done)
Aircon and heating vents installed (not done)

On a positive note all our side and rear fences are done and are looking good. 

Merry Christmas!

SS on-site meeting 3/12/2013

on-site meeting today

all went well, tiling underway - any damaged tiles to be put aside and hopefully we will have enough good ones to get the job done, Alucobond pretty much done.

Yes I am including a happy face, good to see some positive action on-site
:-)

p.s A big hi to CP!

Tiling underway, Alucobond underway, kitchen partially replaced 2/12/2013



Not much action the last week but today a little more action to report on site

Tiling has commenced. Tiler reported today he found a few boxes of tiles that had damaged edges and bowed during manufacturing. When we told him how much $$$ we paid extra to national tiles for these Argentinian porcelain tiles he said he would try and have them replaced. Meeting with Site superior tomorrow so will let him know the issue. 
He is a good tiler and a nice young man, they have good trades at CG. 


Kitchen has been replaced partially today, old kitchen removed and new cabinet shells have been installed. Pot drawers and cupboards are now equal widths and we have pot drawers on island bench instead of cabinet doors. Doors and drawers should be in by Xmas. 



Alucobond has also been about 80% installed. It has finished off the facade nicely can't wait to see render finished and Alucobond unwrapped!
