Mid September Update

Things are progressing well so far this month.

We've had the rear roof installed, metal roof over garage and front porch installed, bathroom waterproofed, air conditioning roughed in, electrical roughed in, bricks washed, insulation installed, and today the gyprock arrived for a start tomorrow.
Our SS is sticking to the scheduled dates he gave us a few weeks back.

I'd like to tick the box that says cladding complete, but oh my gosh, we have the worlds slowest carpenter working on our place.
Not sure what his story is, but he started back on the 21st of August!
He has slowly been cladding the front.... it's almost complete, it just needs the trims to be done.

Then there is the easylap boards at the back, he's done part of the (rear) side of the house, but the back of the house is still to be done....
It would have been nice to have made the house watertight before the insulation went in.
The back of the house is still exposed, I'm just hoping the rain we've had this afternoon hasn't ruined the insulation.

No doubt the gyprockers will be waiting for him to do our lowered bulk heads in the kitchen and entrance.
Then there are the eaves at the back to be done too.

He is so frustrating!!

Picking up pace...

This week progressed well!

Rear lower roof went on Monday, our missing gutter also went on too.

Thursday saw the installation of the metal roof to the garage and front porch including trims and box gutters .

Friday, the cavity sliding door to the laundry was installed to enable the wet areas to be waterproofed.
The waterproofer will return once the walls are gyprocked to complete the work.

Our SS gave us a few key dates to look forward to.
The main ones should see gyprock on the 17th September, fix out on the 24th September and the most exciting one, kitchen on the 28th September!!!

Here are some new photos (with all the wind our fence blew over)
