Render..

Well they have started the render work. Render will be two colours - Woodland Grey & Dune. It seems like they have completed the tiling, and hopefuly should get some shots over the weekend.

Tiling has commenced.......

How the mighty can fall........... I hate being a Collingwood supporter some times.

Anyway...... This weekend did the usual flyby of the house and the tiling has commenced. Eynesbury is starting to get a move on in terms of the number of houses being built, and residents are starting to move into their new homes. Hopefully they open the local store by the time we move in.

Looking down towards the kitchen/family room from the entrance.

Tiling around the kitchen island bench.

Family room. Tiles are 400x400 ceramic, mochca colour.

Rear roller in surfmist. Garage door and eaves are surfmist. This goes against the other colours chosen for the house. The roof/gutters/facia/render are either Woodland Grey or Dune. I am not convinced with surfmist, but as I said before apparently I am colour blind.

Day 84........

The painting of the internals is well underway and they are doing a neat job. The bricks have now been cleaned, so the rendering can start soon. The tiles have beed delivered and are waiting to be layed. We have finalised the quote for the driveway and decking ( I should have become a chippie)

Facade minus render Garage doors have been installed. The garage door colour is surfmist.

Bathroom. Waiting for the benchtop!!

Lots of tiles.

Ensuite tiles - 600x300 porcelains (Ivory)

The rest od the tiling is 400 x400 in a mocha colour.

Wall colour is China White with the skirtings and the ceilings in Lexicon Quarter. The better half could not decide on feature wall colours or wall paper so she kept it basic.

Cleaned slimline bricks.

Day 73

We need to get our shit together, and quickly. This mob are not slowing down in the quest to build our house, and we need to start organising quotes for our decks and verandah as well as the driveway.

We have the curtain people coming around next week, as well as the landscapers to quote up.

The internal carpentry has been completed, the feature brickwork is done as well as the conecting of the downpipes. On our weekly snoop we have realised the painters have been and have covered the internals with plastic in preperation to paint the place.
