Fix out

The fix out tradies arrived yesterday to do all the door jams and doors.

The cornices and architraves are still on the garage floor where they have been for two weeks.

The front door is on! The wrong door was delivered but we are going to keep it! We had originally asked for frosted glass and this one is clear. And it's a gorgeous wooden frame, I am told it's maple, but we are painting it charcoal. So it's a waste of a gorgeous door really! I will endeavour to get some better pics, but we are expected to be locked out today!

The kitchen island has also been fixed, so the drawers are in the correct place now, but there is still a door missing and the extra work to install push button openings has not been done.

Kitchen install

The kitchen has been installed, except the stone top. And some of it is in the wrong place, some of the cupboards are scratched. Overall I am quite disappointed. I love the layout and the size, just not the workmanship!
Here is the kitchen from the dining room
 The island bench, these drawers have been put in the wrong place - they need to go in the middle of the island.
 Our kicker for the ducted vac in the kitchen
 The standard cabinet for the main bathroom

 The standard vanity in our ensuite
I will post more pics when the kitchen island has been fixed!

Gyprock!

The gyprock arrived on Tuesday April 8!
Two blokes took it off the truck one sheet at a time! But that means it has finally arrived, after waiting almost two weeks.....
The gyprockers started on Friday April 11. They completed the ceiling and two walls! The kitchen wall and the side garage wall! No pics as it's too hard to get them...lol

They are onsite again today, so we are hoping to see some more walls later today!

Eaves and insulation

I haven't posted for some time as we got rained out! Last week our bricks were completed as much as could be. This week we have had a site clean!
The remainder of the bricks were laid above the roller door.
The insulation of external walls was completed today.
Also the eaves were completed today.
Some pics.......
