Bricks are really coming along now and with the front scaffolding out of the way our bedroom windows were finished and bricks could start at the front.
We met with our site supervisor the other day and I think he's going to be really good. He's been a supervisor with Porter Davis for 5 years but building their display homes, he's only been building with clients for last 6 months. He is very organised and says he likes things to just flow and so things will keep moving fast.
He also mentioned that Austral had no idea why we would think the Lonsdale bricks had been discontinued as they've never been. Apparently the estimator who was working on our file is "no longer working with them" and had also cancelled our stacker door order after that debacle with 4 panels vs 3 so when SS asked where it was the window company had a cancellation and no door for us in the system. Hopefully that won't hold up the brickies. Still waiting on our BC to acknowledge what happened with the bricks and our holiday, she's working on the ignore theory rather than address it which annoys me more!!
Anyway here's some pictures of our bricks and windows

Hi JLD,
Thanks for sharing your updated, I love seeing progress pictures of our clients builds - I know I said this last time but your place does look massive. I'm really pleased to hear your feedback on your SS and I can understand the frustration with cancelled stacker door and debacle with bricks. I am on the forum to also offer assistance so at any time please feel free to send me a private message and I will assist where possible. Cheers, Ebony
