Good to hear the brickies will be starting
Your house is looking great. Love all the glass sliders.

Fingers crossed we have nice weather and see plenty of progress on our houses this week!!
Great stuff! I see that you've sorted out the sand problem - good luck with lots of brick progress this week!
Its looking good Bec. I hope you get some dry weather until you get to lock up. There is nothing worse that putting things on hold because of the rain. And good that the sand is sorted also. i am just catching up on everything - its been a week I think since i was on H1!
Thanks guys - brickies didn't get out today, presume it was a bit wet for them this morning!!! But we do have some roof battens going up to maybe roofing soon too!!!
All going well, see what happens tomorrow!
Those views are stunning !!!

Hmmmm thinking I will be ringing the Format office tomorrow to check our sand .

Fingers crossed for lots of dry weather and progress
OK here are the final pics of framing, invoice came in today!!

And bricks are all ready to go, in fact I was out there this morning and saw about 3 rows done, of the garage wall!!!

Yesterday we had brickies, carpenters and electricians there!!! THAT felt good!!!!

Have a great weekend, we are in for some great building weather next week!!!

Portico is taking shape; love the shower glass too.
We will definately be getting a quote from them. My friend I was telling you about, picked up the quilts from me today and they told me about another house going up by KC so we are going to have a look. This one is using the weather board look which is what we would like so it will be interesting to see what it looks like.
Hi there, yes, it is actually on the market now....will PM you the details!
We are really happy with how things are going. I am glad you are getting a quote!
