Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Building the Hampton with Allworth Homes 210Jan 31, 2018 5:24 am We had our first night in our new home last night. Hubby isn't taking any time off work so I moved our entire kitchen yesterday by myself with our 2 toddlers in tow, our son is great and actually helps but our daughter who is almost 2 is a nightmare, she's one of these whingey babies that's into absolutely everything, so by the time bedtime came this mumma had enough. At least now I can put our daughter down for her nap at the new house and I can get things done in the day time Didn't get alot of sleep last night, we have a large flock of very loud plovers in the estate that kept screaming past my window 6.30am we have our concrete truck arriving for our driveway, very excited to get that done. Appliances were supposed to be installed yesterday and they only installed the oven and microwave, if they turn up today to finish their install they won't be able to get to the gas metre to finish their install as the concrete will be getting poured around it, so we will be without our appliances and hot water again for another day viewtopic.php?f=31&t=89450&start=20 Re: Building the Hampton with Allworth Homes 212Feb 05, 2018 6:39 am Our concrete is poured. Our blinds were delivered and I installed all 10 blinds in one day myself whilst looking after the kiddies. And our tv antenna was also fitted today, so we can watch tv again instead of dvds 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 ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅

Re: Building the Hampton with Allworth Homes 215Feb 05, 2018 10:46 am That's all coming along so well. You have a lovely sized backyard and the sandstone looks great too Re: Building the Hampton with Allworth Homes 216Feb 11, 2018 4:31 pm 11/02/2017- We tackled the backyard this weekend. Put in ag pipe, 3 cubic metres of blue metal and geo mesh around the house and alfresco to prevent water drainage issues also shoveled and smoothed out 6 cubic metres of turf underlay and need another 2 cubic metres to complete the job. Turf next weekend, pretty happy with how much we achieved ourselves in 2 days while looking after 2 toddlers All of our fence posts were set on Friday and panels to go in tomorrow I believe so I thought I'd get a couple more pics before that happened.

Lots of hard work getting all the exterior stuff done (I’m dreading that part with our place) but it will all be worth it once you see that turf laid! 👌 Re: Building the Hampton with Allworth Homes 218Feb 11, 2018 7:36 pm Homestead2017 Your place is coming along nicely!
