It's pretty darned unbelievable, but we're nearly there. . . just one week away from handover.
I was at the house this morning, all the door handles and fittings were sitting beside each relevant door. . . (well, actually, they had the privacy and passage handles mixed up on the ensuite and master bed, so I just switched them). . . door stops were positioned next to the door handles. . . the cheap white plastic things. . . so I collected them all up and gave them back to Tom when he popped by. . . (we've ordered some nice black and silver door stops online, they should be here any day. .. didn't want them putting the wrong ones on!) The chippies should be in tomorrow to fit everything, and hopefully get all the remaining chippie stuff finished. Also, they're fitting the front door handle! Yay! Must remember to take a pic.
The gyprocker was arriving as I was leaving, so the kitchen bulkhead should be plastered and corniced today.
Dale the tiler was adding the finishing touches to the alfresco tiles and will also hopefully have tiled the splashback in the laundry.
Bob was painting the front wall with bitumen sealer for the fill which is going to be dumped against the wall on Monday (Jeff said something about putting an aggie sheet (whatever that is)and some brick rubble in between the wall and the dirt, with a channel at the bottom to drain the water away somewhere safe.) Goodo!
We have to finish off our little bits of painting and finish fixing up the back fence over the weekend, hopefully I'll have time to seal the grout in the ensuite too. . .
Aircon goes in on Monday. Earth is also being moved around on Monday (hopefully) with a few more truckfulls of fill being brought in. . . hurrah! More dirt!
Alarm and ducted vac install is finishing off on Wednesday.
Kitchen benchtop goes in (hopefully) on Wednesday.
Vanities and toilets and plumbing (hopefully) get done on Wednesday too. (Depending on when the vanities arrive).
Clothes line should be installed on Thursday or Friday.
Bamboo flooring goes in on Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
Handover is Friday! Woohoo!
Carpets going in a week on Monday and Wednesday.
We should be doing the "big move" on Tuesday.
Dishwasher is being installed a week on Wednesday.
Foxtel is being installed two weeks tomorrow. . .
There are an awful lot of "hopefully"s in there, aren't there?

ReplyDeleteYou will have to post a pic of your doorstops.I don't know what we are having. . .another thing to check.Might have to change ours!
What type of clothes line are you having?
Loretta
You betcha! I'm really hoping they get everthing done this week as we don't really want things being carried over to next week. . . just want to move in and be done with it.
ReplyDeleteOoohhh. . . doorstops. . . I shall certainly post a pic. We were going to get the little silver crescent type stops, but decided against it. . . one of the builders told us afterwards that they're often not tall enough and don't actually stop the door. . . lucky we changed our minds!
Oooh, I'll post a piccie of the clothes line too. It's a Hills Duo blah blah blah, it's grey and is one of the wall-mount ones.
