Practically Complete

Things are still steaming a head with the house build, to such an extent that on Thursday our Site Super called to let us know the date of practical completion…September 17th…woohoo.  At this stage that is an approximate date, but it looks like we could be in by the end of Sept, 2 1/2 months ahead of schedule.

So with that, of course we had to go up and get some photos of the place, and there are plenty of things to see.

• All of the wet area tiling has been complete, they just need to silicon seal the corners.
• Painting on the inside is 95% complete.  They didn’t have one of the feature wall colours, but are trying to find a match.
• Kitchen is 90% complete, just need appliances.
• Outside rendering is complete.

Now time for the gripes:

• Some of the feature wall paint (little drops) have splashed onto the normal wall.
• Various other little paint issues.
• There is something missing from where the garage steps are.
• You can see the silicon glue that is holding up the glass splash back.
• The render colour above the windows and doors is a different colour.

Anyhow, I shall be calling the SS on Monday to let him know.

But on with the photos.

The ensuite, with the olive feature wall:

The Kitchen (you can see the glue/sillicon marks):

The dining room, with the leaning tower of bath tubs:

The missing paint will eventually be a maroony colour:

The nook (future fish tank location):

The entrance way:

The garage:

Oh, and we have the other half of the hot water system:
