Wow so close!! Looking great and love the carpets

I know can't wait! We should get the date tomorrow, fingers crossed

Yay for a PCI Date! Congrats Hootie! I'm hoping it all goes smoothly and you don't have too much to get done after the inspection!

Lovinggg the progress Hootie the place is definitely coming along quickly!

And I want to do a fire pit also! Just not sure whether I'll commit to it or not, especially as I'd dig most of the sand out myself... Big job!

Thanks Gypsyhabitat, MalSannie, BS12 and Petad!

BS12 - Go for it! Because we don't have space for a pool, we decided to have a firepit, which can also be converted into a multi-use area during other seasons. if you know someone who has a bobcat who can help, that would be a bonus...

Petad - Thanks for the wool soap tip, will try it.

Today we had the front driveway paving started. When I went by in the evening more had been completed, but it was a little too dark for photos. Driveway is yet to be completed, but it is looking mighty fine

My wife managed to take a pic when she went past earlier in the day. We are happy with the choice of paver colour and are using the same pavers for the alfresco paving:

We are sure that the carpets could have probably been completed as well, but can't confirm as we can't get into the house lol...

Thanks Dream_Catchers

Exciting news today folks, despite the bad weather...1st PCI has been booked for 24 Sept!!!

How close are we???

Although the weather turned bad towards the early arvo, we still had some paving done, some painting (I think) and also maybe some electrical (not sure)....

Alfresco paving started...we are using the same pavers as the driveway so as to carry on the theme...Oops...wife in pic...

Fantastic news Hootie - that is just around the corner!! your alfresco looks huge in that picture wow it'll be such a lovely space. I see they've painted the downpipes too it melts into the background now doesn't it? I was looking at letterboxes earlier and saw a few firepits. I think if it wasn't for you mentioning it I'd probably not have registered them at all
