Frame complete, roof has gone on..........................

Seen alot happen this week, framing complete considering the wheather has not been to good.

Windows have been installed, and roof tiles have been laid, with alittle disappointment that the roof has not been sharked. will ring our s/s tomorrow and ask why it hasnt been done. Hopefully he can do something about it and rectify the issue.

The timber windows look great and are very happy with what we chose. It seems such a long time ago since we chose all our fittings that you begin to doubt  what was choosen until you see them installed.

Roof tiles also look good after we were told that our orginal choice was unavaiable and had to choose another roof tile color.

Here are a few photos.........

The frame is going up..................

Well its taken three weeks to get this far with the frame.

The wheather has not been to kind for us. its meant to be finished by the 2nd of may but as u can see its going slow...........and check out the pool of water we have in the kicthen and theres mud everywhere but hopefully it will get cleaned up once the roof is on.

Windows have been there for a coulpe of weeks also, so hopefully there not getting damaged with the rain. Spoke to carpenter and said they should be in on tuesday.

Got a call from our building co/ord on friday saying that we will be getting another building co/ord as she is moving to another department which is a shame because we had a good relationship, so now we will have to get to know our new building co/ord and hope this does not delay us anymore!
