Thanks again for following along everyone.
Yes, Settlement was finally sorted out and the builder was paid his Base Stage over the weekend. I know that because the bank has added it to my debit column as well so that they can start charging interest on it. I sincerely hope that this will be the last of the paperwork issues I need to deal with on this build. I just want to get on with the building now.
Denh, another fantastic shot from your "birds-eye-view" over there - love the wide angle shots you do.
Yes, very serious steel is supporting a top floor that will not be brick but apparently some kind of rendered board with some foam involved?? The kids will be able to ride quad bikes up there with all that iron supporting the floor....
Here are some more shots of it;
It's even supporting the Alfresco Roof !!!
SS Says that they have had to put the chippy's to work elsewhere during the halted period so he needs to get them back now. He hopes that the floor between the two storeys goes in this week with the frame for the second storey going on next week. Crossed fingers for more action soon.
