The First Month of Building

The slab was laid on 22 October and it has been 1 month since.

The walls are still coming up and they are working on the eastern wall (laundry and front bathroom side). The kitchen window frames are also in place.

The Kitchen is Up

We visited the house on Saturday together with Jane. 
It was a very hot 38 degrees day but we are still excited with seeing the house progressing nicely.

Rear Door Frames are Up

We brought Sally, on short work visit from Sydney, to the house in the evening and met with our next door neighbour Anthony and his son Xavier.

The rear door frames are up and the external bricks have started at the front, from the study room side.

Taking Shape

More walls are coming up and there is predicted rain for the next few days. Hopefully that does not delay and hamper the brickies work too much.

Karen was taking photos at the front and met our next door neighbour Anthony. We met his wife Tash earlier. We have met most of our new neighbours across the road and they are all friendly and have kids. Thank God for this lovely family orientated neighbours.

Oh No !! The Wine Cellar Window ?!

We noticed there is a beam or mullion at the centre of the wine cellar window.
It should be a one piece glass window.
What happened?

We missed that out in the final drawings. 

One  #@$#%%*&;!! beep beep .. little line.

However, managed to get HH to fix it by removing the mullion and re-order full pane glass.


Work has Started

We drove by the lot on Thursday night and saw that they have started work.

The window and door frames were moved to location, and the walls have started to come up at the front rooms. Exciting !

We went over the very next day and could see the internal walls have started towards the middle of the house.


Viewed from the rear, the walls are up!

Bricks Delivered

We flew back to Perth from KL on Saturday 7 November and visited our lot on Sunday 8 November.

We were not expecting it but were both delighted and excited when we saw the bricks, window and door frames, cement and all the works delivered to site. It won't be long now before the walls start coming up.
