If we are lucky they might be done by the end of the week! I need to check the colour of the mortar or does it dry white?

Re: KG's First Build - Windows In & Bricks Started 45Jul 28, 2014 9:18 pm Great progress KGsGirl, we're on the same sort of timeline. It's a bit mind boggling how fast it happens after waiting for settlement for so long. I'm not sure about the mortar but our bricks are supposed to be starting tomorrow so I'll let you know if I find out.

They have done the piping but only achieved a couple of rows of bricks. Apparently brickies will be back Sat or Mon and will take 3 days to complete the bricks.
