MainVue Emporio ER432 Ultima

Your house looks so beautiful! Brought a tear to my eye and has made me appreciate why this building drama is all going to be worth it. You must be so happy with how it is looking. I love your kitchen!

Thank you so much, I really really appreciate you saying that.
I was very nervous choosing everything, but yes very happy with how it is coming together. Think it will look even better once the floors are done.
There are always dramas with building, and things can go wrong but definitely worth it in the long run. I have learnt to be patient even though that is hard some days when I walk past and no one is there. I have seen things that don't look right, but they have usually been fixed by the next time. We do have an excellent SS so pretty lucky with that. Although I would alway recommend an independent inspector, he didn't pick up much, but it's reassuring and I think they take a little extra care if they know an independent inspector will be checking.

Our final clean and porta loo went 7 weeks ago and we are still waiting for PCI - I think we are the minority though.
Hope you get to PCI soon then I know we will be there soon too

Good to see progress.

Thanks, we haven't had much weekend works so was a surprise to see him there today. Jess, sorry yours has not gone smoothly, hopefully it will all be done soon.

Wow you have achieved a lot. I'll be very keen to move in straight away, and get out of our rental. We could be living in a construction zone for a while. But that doesn't worry me, we lived through a renovation with young children, so had a lot worse.

Hi TiVeena,
No they just do the provision, but we don't have nbn in our area. I saw someone else posted the box they got from their provider. I can't remember who it was though. Sorry, I'm not much help.

Temp fence gone and garage door installed. Just need painting over garage and under the porch. Really wish we had of done brick over the garage door

Our lovely big laundry. We will fit that out with cabinets later.

It's a nice facade still! What colour are they painting above the garage?
That laundry is about twice the size of ours!

It will be painted basalt, same as garage door and roof. So hopefully it will blend in.
We added and extra 30cm to laundry so that we can had cabinets on both sides

I recon it'll look good painted that colour, if anything it'll make your garage door look higher too.

NHP tomorrow. Still so much to do and a few things to fix up.
