Our Site Supervisor called again today with an update on the progress, and to let us know the upcoming schedule over the next few weeks. No Photo's in this one, just an update.
I think some time this week the measurements for the Showers, Mirrors and glass Splash back should be done. These will take about 2 weeks or so before they are installed. Towards the end of this week, the Electrician should finish all the points and lighting. Early Next week the Plumber should be doing the fit out of the bathrooms and toilets. After that, the Floating floors are booked in (Takes about 3 days to do), followed by the carpets. I think some time between now and then the Caesar Stone Bench tops are to go in too.
And now the best for last! After that, we have our first inspection. If all goes well (Which I'm sure it will), the Site Supervisor has said we will be leaning towards handover for.... wait for it.... the 20th March!!!
Yup you read correct. 20th of March!!! 3 Weeks.... Give or take based on how smoothly things go between now and then, and of course if nothing major is to be done from our inspection.
Oh my gosh. I'm still suffering from hot flushes after the chat with the Site Supervisor. We've got plenty of things we need to do between now and then so I think it's time to start packing! I'm swinging by the house again tonight but I don't know if anything will have been done so will only do another post if I notice anything.

Three weeks! You must be so excited. The kitchen is looking great. I hope the rest of the finishing touches go well.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the post. Getting very excited now. Each day is going by so quickly. I can't believe it has been 5 days already since this post. Like you said in your blog, our kitchen is the centerpiece of our living area so I paid special attention to it with the upgrades. (Your blog is great by the way).
DeleteIt's been very quick for our build. We were a little unprepared as it's been a lot quicker the expected. Much better to be honest as I really am looking forward to handover. Just have to get packing and organise for the move. We will be doing most of it ourselves as we sold a lot of our belongings with the intention of replacing everything specifically designed around this house. Still have the main things to get us by (bed, dining table, couches, kitchen stuff) but sold (Or chucked out) all the little cluttering things that you seem to accumulate over the years.
Only little things have been done over the week up to today however this week is meant to be full on. Looks like all the main things are to be installed (Electrics, Plumbing, Flooring etc.). It may not be but I suspect/hope by Friday we get a call by our site supervisor to book in our inspection date.
Hope the rest of your build goes as smooth for you too.
