2 weeks to moving in...

Have a look at the latest progress in the following gallery:

End of March

Looking to moving in within the next 2 weeks...Can't wait!

Lock up

We are finally at lock up stage. Most of the exterior work is done except for downpipes and rain-water heads. Internal painting is underway and tiling will start soon. However we are running out of time for pre-Christmas handover, so now it's likely that handover will occur in late-January. It's been a long journey and the wait is kind of frustrating. I hope it is all worth it in the end.

Lock up

Upper floor

Much to my surprise the contractors had left the construction stairs unlocked - thus for the first time I am able to access the upper floor. The two smaller bedrooms seem more spacious than I anticipated.

External colours and plastering

External painting was done last week - the feature colour didn't turn out as we expected but nevertheless it looks pretty cool.

Internal walls

Things are definitely moving now - This week they have done the internal walls for the lower level.

Progress so far...

My apologies for not updating this blog for the past several months. I have been extremely busy and just haven't got around to keep this blog up to date.

After weeks of idling and a switchover to new site supervisor, things are finally moving with the house. Hopefully it will be completed before the end of the year.

Progress so far include:

- Roofing
- Rendering of external walls
- External painting of the upper level
- Plumbing
- Electrical wiring
- Network wiring
- Insulation
- Interior lining by the end of this week

Here are some photos showing the progress in the last several months:

Walls Continued

Have been a bit lazy to blog in the past week or so...lucky the builder isn't in the same mood as me, as they have completed the installation of the walls.

Things still to do is the rendering and the painting of the external walls. Still the house looks much more impressive now the walls are there. Can't wait to get the roof up as well!
