Day-152: Garage Doors Installed

The garage doors are installed and that is a wonderful news as the house looks much better now.

Here are some of the photos of the garage door and the entrance:

Pending tasks:

• Plumbing on external downpipes
• Tiling inside in the Foyer/Entrance
• Wooden flooring in Family, Dinning, Pantry
• Carpeting in Rumpus, Guest, Study rooms, stairs and upstairs
• Electricals
• More painting work
• Screens in the baths
• Spa in the main bath
• General cleanup
• Outside painting
• Balcony painting
• Inspections
• Fireplace installation 
• Defects fixes...

Day-151: Some More Update...

Have been updated by the SM that the following things are in progress:

• Tiling in the baths
• The rendering in the balcony has been done
• Tiling in the Foyer and the Entrance yet to be done
• Doors have been painted again and finalysed perhaps

Once the tiling is done, then there will be more painting in the house. The screens will go in the bathroom. Spa will be installed as well then.

We have seen the garage door has been installed. I will put the photo tomorrow. Because of the garage door, the house looks more complete, although the painting is still incomplete from outside.

The issue with the Fireplace height should have been resolved as well as per the SM. He said that the height of the Fireplace will be 400mm. Hopefully with the steel flange, it would come out good.

We have an appointment with the SM on coming Wednesday and then we will have some photos to put here...

Looks like not many things are left now...

Day-139: Carpentry Completed and Much More...

As per the update from the SM, the following things are done in the last two weeks:

• Looks like the carpentry is almost complete. Kitchen, Loundry, Pantry areas are all done. All the doors are installed and so are the sliding doors. 
• One coat of painting has been done on the ceiling and the primer  has been done on the walls all around inside the house. 
• Waterproofing in all the baths and the balcony has been done as well.
• Rain tanks installed as well

Next week there will be work on the following:

• Benchtops in Kitchen, Loundry, Pantry, baths
• Tiling in the baths (there will be quite some work out there as there are five baths)
• We were told by the SM that there was some issue with the Firelace height which would be rectified in the coming week as well.
• More painting...
• Also, we have requested our SM to get the downpipes done as otherwise when it rains, the water rushes to the neighbour's property. Hopefully this will be rectified this week.

I have sent the measurements of all our appliances to our SM to make sure that all of them will fit into  their respective places.

In the meantime, we have been sent the invoice for the FIXING STAGE. So hopefully the momentum of the work will be on...

We have started meeting people for driveway, fence, gates etc... The good thing is that we have got people's recommendation which has made our life easier as we do not need to hunt people around.
Perhaps it is too early, but within a month we need to gear up our efforts on this so that we could get these things done as soon as we are handed over the keys.

Day-130: Carpentry Starts...

The stairs are installed, we have been told. So now both the floors are connected. As part of the carpentry, this was the first thing. Now all  the doors will be done in a day or two. Then the kitchen cabinets will follow.
