Monday 6th May 2013

 

Today the external painting began with the render being painted. I'm very happy with the way it has come up.  

Tuesday 7th May 2013

Today the underlay was laid for the carpet

 

Wednesday 8th May 2013

 

Today the plumber returned & connected the bath & fixed the missing tile.

He also connected the laundry taps which now makes the laundry complete (except for the magpie vent which we have been told will be done between PCI & handover)
 

 

 

 

The painters were also back & finished all the external painting except the portico. They also painted the rear garage door.



 

 

 

Thursday 9th May 2013

 

Today the carpet was laid, it is a little browner than what I pictured it to be & the photos make it look even browner than it is & really don't do it justice at all. Although it is browner it still ties in well with our colours

 

 

The tiler was back and finished the grout in the bathroom & ensuite, leaving only the sealing to be done which we have been told will be tomorrow.

 

 

The cleaners were also back today, it has made such a difference to everything to see it clean rather than covered with dust & dirt

 

 

 

 Friday 10th May 2013

 

 Today the basins & bath we fixed and the bathrooms sealed, the shower drains were also put in meaning that the bathroom & ensuite are now complete.

 

 

The rear garage door has been hung, the gap in the brickwork above the ensuite window has been fixed & all the fly screens are on.
