Our slab was poured about two weeks ago. We had our steel frame delivered this week which is great as we weren;t expecting it to arrive until mid Nov. We are away on holidays for the next week and we hope when we return we will have a framed house!!!

They have got everything ready for the footings tomorrow, monday and the concrete slab goes down on Tuesday. We are very excited. We are building on a rural block - 13 acres. We signed up with plunket in january and got the building contract in may. It seems like it has taken ages to get to this stage but hopefully everything should keep moving along nicely now.
