Re: First build with Redink Homes- brickwork finished 116Apr 04, 2014 9:57 am 16 days for brickwork which I don't think is bad for 1 guy & a labourer, however they told me that they would be finished by Thursday but they didn't turn up so still not finished yet Yes can't wait now for the roof my hubby has got to go in once roof timbers have gone up to do some chasing for some additions he is adding in once house is finished but he does FIFO 26 away 9 home so we are hoping he doesn't miss his slot as he is home today, have been told it should be done by the end of next week so fingers crossed he has a couple of days to do what he needs to Re: First build with Redink Homes- brickwork finished 117Apr 09, 2014 9:29 am We now have roof timbers so hopefully we will have a frame soon.
