Flooring Started

Exciting news!!!! The flooring has started. They came and did the moisture barrier yesterday and have come back to start the laying today! Yayyyyy They did a good job of the moisture barrier except some wall have scratches where the roller was hitting the wall too hard. They have not done the linen cupboard but that's because they did not want to open another tin specifically as they still need to do the home theatre. The blue moisture barrier makes the kitchen stand out now that it is not against the grey concrete look. So the estimate is 5 days for laying, one day to sit, then 4 days to sand and seal so it will be done by 24th.

The punchlist items are getting ticked off quick smart by our SS. The telstra cable is now installed and the paving reinstated. You can't really even tell that they pulled the paving up to get the conduit down! The rear roller door is also now complete. It springs up a bit when fully down but I think this is because they have set the tension higher due to the bigger door. It is very light to pull up but this can be adjusted once we move in. The sparkies were back this morning to adjust the light circuit in the study and bed 1. They needed more cable so not sure what the problem is and how they will fix.

The bank has now paid the builder. It was too much so our lovely CC emailed to say that the bank paid over the final statement amount and that she will put the overpaid amount into our account. What service!!

Also the patio is well underway. The rear frame was started yesterday so the entire frame should be done by the end of this week.

It has not rained in Perth for over 80 days but today (when the flooring is starting) it decides to spit and be humind! Just not what we want for timber laying.... Fingers crossed it does not rain for another couple of weeks.
