Second Storey:

We have the second story framed and the roof trusses delivered!

Ground floor frame

Got a phone call today - Monday, saying that the frame had been delivered... and the ground floor erected. They certainly do not seem to be messing around!

Slab preparations

Today the site was prepared for pouring the slab, which is scheduled for tomorrow (Tuesday). It was really exciting to see the house dimensions in situ finally and actually made us more relaxed about the surrounding space. We know what it should look like, having seen a similar layout. Until you actually have something on your own plot though... It doesn't seem quite real.

Despite the hole in the fence, we were good customers and did not venture onto site making do with photos from the ever popular hand above head position and hoping that the angle was good.

Behold the finished piece as of today (Tuesday):

In the words of Murray Walker: " GO GO GO!"

Behold - the fence is up, we have a loo, and men and machines have combined efforts to start scraping away at our land as work on the slab stage has begun!

Upcoming dates:
9th October - drains going in
Slab poured by (worst case) 15th October.
