That's how we are feeling too... at the moment.
Let me know what happens next... coz our SS hasn't explained yet how concreter would fix our slab.
Anyway, we also have windows!
Wonder if we could catch up with you

glad to hear Henley were up front about the cementing and its been resolved quickly. Here is a link to our 'blog' - our house is at a similar stage to yours tho' we don't have any bricks yet (I can't wait for this to start). As you will see in the blog we had our guttering started today and it looks as though they should be finished tomorrow. All the best, hope your builders have a busy week!

Still no word from the engineering dept. on the extra bit that was added on to the slab.... We're getting there.....but the weather is not helping. More soon. Re: READY.....SET.....

It is steaming ahead. Re: READY.....SET..... GO!!!!!!!!!!! 331Feb 08, 2008 7:34 pm We have been updated by our CSR today. It seems that the gutters & fascias are starting this Monday 11th Feb and the roof is scheduled to commence on the following Monday 18th Feb.
H3nley have conducted the frame inspection in the last day or so and we are waiting for the results from our CSR. If there is anything wrong, it will need to be rectified prior to continuing the build. Can't wait to see more movement..... can you tell we're dying to have our house??? Re: READY.....SET..... GO!!!!!!!!!!! 332Feb 08, 2008 7:49 pm Phoenix,
We might also start with gutters and fascias on Monday, as we saw they've already done some preparation for it today. Quote: can you tell we're dying to have our house???

The guttering and fascias are done, and the safety barriers are up for the roof tilers. The plumbers were there doing their thing... it's all coming along just nicely... No roof tiles delivered yet, but they are supposed to start them next Monday.
