bricking has started and independent frame inspection

yeee haaa our bricking of the house has started... looking really good im happy with the choice of bricks. My brickies said to me while i was at the house they will do a good job for me.

Kevin from New Home Inspections came to the house to day and inspected the outside and inside. He found a few minor issues but nothing really to worry over. Interestingly the frame had been past before he came and he still found things wrong. So it pays to get someone independent to have a look for your own peace of mind.

bricks have arrived and sample roof tile







Went down to the house tonight.. our bricks have been delivered.. the bricks in the left pic was abit of a concern to me thought the color looked abit dark but the its just a layer of the pigment dust..( if thats wot you call it) that makes it look dark once it off it wont look asbad. the pic on the right is more of a realistic color of the bricks. looks like a fresh batch to me.

fencing, noggins/frame inspection

Spoke to my building supervisor today he says go ahead with the fence, and the noggins are nothing to worry about.

Going to have a framing inspection on Monday.
We also asked for a temporary fence on the back of the block.
