Wowsers! Gr8ly it looks so amazing, so unfortunate that it is slow, but at least you are getting a quality build with your defects being corrected! The coffered ceiling looks great! and that 5 metre entry way - amazing, my mouth dropped to the floor when I saw it! definitely going to be the focal po...

Maybe my eldest son might get the space thing but my eldest daughter couldn’t find her way out of a wet paper bag 🤦🏼‍♀️. We will have a wait for frames ☹️ our slab needs a bit of time to cure.

The stackers look great [emoji4] you’d have to be so pleased with their progress! Thanks Kailie, we really are so pleased. I said to mark if we ever build again, I hope we don’t get disappointed if it’s not as good of an experience. But hard to beat atm lol

Plaster, cornices and bricks this week! Loving seeing our outside colours start to come together I’m actually quite impressed with the brickwork, majority seems to be nice, clean and even lines [emoji847] Also, totally worth the upgrade for off white mortar!! https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2018042...
