We Have Movement

Our start date has come and gone and our block is now looking very different. We had a slight issue while we were on holidays before the start date. Our portaloo was burnt down. But Coral have now got a new one on site. We have finished our retaining wall and are on track for a slab pour on the 5th of April. Just have to hope for no rain. Finally we have pics of movement on the block.

Site Supervisor

We have been very impressed with our site supervisor so far. We have had a phone call from him introducing himself and letting us know his plan for the first monthish. His current plan is...
21.03.2013 - Cut the block
22-24.03.2013 - We build the other half of the retaining wall
25.03.2013 - Slab pour
11.04.2013 - Frame goes up

It is really nice to know that things have been planned and he is all ready to go. Give us that nice secure feeling.

Hubby had also mentioned to him that he would out on the block during last week putting the retaining wall up so the SS dropped by to meet Jas and have a look at the block. Needless to say we are long the service so far. Very happy to be in the consrtuction zone now.

We are also very excited to now have half a retaining wall built. Jas completed the wall last week and it is really good to finally see something on the block. We are about to go on holidays for a week so will post pics when we are back.

We Have A Start Date!

We are very excited that we got a call on Friday to say that our start date is the 21st of March, weather permitting. We have spent the day sourcing materials for the retaining wall so we can have that done in time for the start date.

Thought this would also be a good time to post a pic of our house plan.

Sorry for the dodgy pic. Best I could do.
