Boards Finished

We received our progress payment claim for the commencement of the internal linings on Friday. I don't usually greet bills with enthusiasm, but at least this one means that Gyprock should be just around the corner. This week's progress sees the completion of the boards at the back and the remaining missing boards from the front. We have a site visit planned for Monday, so hopefully we'll get some close up pictures.

More pics

All in all, i think we are happy with the colour selection. It'll be good when all the marocca finish is done, so that we can get the true picture of the finished exterior look.

Lower story roof

It's been 2 weeks now since we last went to the house. I knew from the schedule that last week would not have seen too much exciting visual progress, so we decided to skip last week, and take a drive out this weekend. We knew the lower roof was scheduled to go on this week, and that the scaffolding was meant to come down. It is starting to look a lot more finished now in the outside.

From above

Nearmap has come out with their August update. This one was shot on August 6th, just before the lower roof went on.

Better pictures

Kate was going back past the block, so she managed to snap some better pictures. The colours look a bit better in this one.

External Colours

It's hard to tell what the colours on the balcony will look like from these pictures. Kate snapped them from her mobile on the way past today. We'll have to get out there on the weekend and get some better shots, with better camera and lighting. The boards appear to have been painted too.

Brick cleaning started

Not such spectacular visible progress this week, but things seem to be moving on none the less. The brick cleaning has been started. Very happy with the colour. They look even better than I'd thought. Not too much else seems to have happened. I could just get a glimpse through the window of what I'm sure was the silver ducting for the ducted air con.

The electricians are coming early next week.
