updates

We went to the house on the weekend and discovered we could get in.. naughty as my son was climbing thru the window one of the PD workers came over and was having a look at us sprung bad lol.. i said to him we are the owners and i thought he said to me i will be talking to them next week and such and such is ur superviser thought now im going to be dobbed in.. well i heard him wrong he had said im corking your house next week.. i felt like a idiot.

Anyway they have grouted the tiles and installed the chinese hats (lights) and we have flood light outside our back door is that normal thought it would be a normal globe. NOW thats going to be bright will stung anyone who goes up the side of the house at nite.

We have the square basins installed that sit on top of the vanity top.Well i think that was a mistake getting them has they had to be postioned back against the wall so the spout could reach have too stand on tippy toes to lean over the basin.

PICS



















































































































































































































painting and installation of cabinets

Had a site inspection today and quite pleased with the progress of the building so far....In retrospect i think PD have done a good job . The painting is almost finished .The quality of the painting is very good but prob wont pick up imperfections until the liteing is installed. Noticed today the cabinet maker had stacked the doors against a wall.. you can guess damage to the paint.The painters will come back later to put another coat of paint on the feature walls . they do this because the feature walls can become dirty from the other tradies who come thru the house.. This morning the cabinets had been delivered . i went back this arvo to take more pics and they were already being installed. The mouldings have been installed on the front of the house. My s s is still dirty on me getting Kev through. Well wot can you do if a frame is passed with a few defects. Wots worse had to keep on justifing my self. Beware of excuses.

So my next job is to go and look for carpet and flooring as this will have to be installed after handover.. Really not long to go looking at mid April for handover.
