Roof next week!
We are really happy with the brick that we chose. Love the colour and texture! They will be acid washed early next week and gutters and eaves will start towards the end of the week.
As promised, here are the pictures of the brickwork so far. They got a fair amount done for only 1 day of work. Very happy with the brick we chose and the neat job that the guys are doing.
No photos though, I felt too weird taking photos while the brickies were there. I will try to get some tomorrow.
We dropped by this evening to see the frame finished and our surfmist windows and stacker doors installed. Our bricks (bowral simmental silver) had also been delivered. Hopefully we don't have to wait too long for the bricklayers to start.
We were very excited this evening to see all the wall frames and some of the roof frames up! The house is starting to feel very real now! The proportions look good, although the front bedrooms and garage feel smaller than I expected. A truck arrived to deliver the windows and stacker doors, however there was no room to leave them. Apparently the frame will be finished tomorrow and the windows/doors can be dropped off then.
Our slab was poured on Saturday 7 May 2016! It is great to get a better idea of room sizes and how the house will sit on the block. The frame is set to be delivered on Thursday.
