Browse Forums Building A New House Re: [SA] Santorini 26 - Internals 321Sep 24, 2013 5:24 pm could not get inside today, but all the lights i had purchased have been installed, tried to get photos of most of them, shower screens are pretty much installed, the big mirror wasnt installed, he had it with him, so maybe it was damaged or something. area in the laundry also got patched up, back on track!. dont think i like the height of the garage light, i assume it would be up high and sensor below it, looking at the plan it is the height we asked for.

The carpet and hardwood flooring was getting under way early this morning that will be finished by the end of the week. By the end of next week it will be all protected, plumbing/tiling will be finished off as well as all the door handles etc, and hopefully electrical as well, bits of that have been started but mainly just the lights i purchased outright. Apart from those things, couple of dvd shelfs and painted render is pretty much all that's missing now. Ordered the in/out meter for the solar today, so should have solar just after we move in which will be nice.

Mr Mia noticed a light that was damaged so hopefully i can swap it over at the store. also got 2 toilet roll holders installed which we had got credit for.. good times. tiling/siliconing has been finished to a decent level except for one tile needs regrouting so nothing major. quite a bit of flooring has been done pictures below Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Initial Deposit 28/09/2012 // Prelim Contract Signed 25/11/2012 Selections 21/1/2013 to 23/1/2013 // Contract Signed 22/2/2013 Site Start 21/5/2013 // Slabbed 30/5/2013 Re: [SA] Santorini 26 - Internals 330Sep 26, 2013 11:08 pm few more day time shots.

Cheers Re: [SA] Santorini 26 - Internals 332Sep 27, 2013 10:04 am Yea i really like what we picked, thanks!.

Re: [SA] Santorini 26 - Internals 334Sep 27, 2013 12:17 pm No worries Gristy. Thanks for trying anyway. Jealous that you are pretty much ready to move in! Wish we were at that stage. Re: [SA] Santorini 26 - Internals 335Sep 30, 2013 5:36 pm Another step closer today. all fly screens installed, protective plastic to flooring in main walkways and heat lamps, powerpoints and light switches installed. If the sparkys are there again tomorrow may have to hit them up to help me put in my downlights and a couple of custom face plates i have and my ceiling speakers.

All door hardware has now been fitted. This brings the list down to: -splashback - 1 day electrical -dvd joinery -1/2 day plumbing -render -1 hour of bricking -install rainwater tank -install appliances -paint touch ups Im guessing a few of those are kind of waiting on 1/2 decent weather day, looks like today is the last of the rain for a while, but lets hope the rest move along quickly. Looks like my new ADSL connection will be active sometime next week, we have a walkthru/maybe pci? tomorrow morning, so hopefully will have a better idea and some more pictures then.

Plumbers have finished off they just have one tap and Hot water system to do on handover day. Also got some quotes for hanging TVs etc, and to save time i managed to get the TV Antenna installed already, internet connection will be ready from next Friday . I couldn't get in after they finished so only got a couple of pics through the windows.
