Rooms taking shape

With the plaster on the walls we can finally get a feel for the size and layout of the rooms.  Downstairs is almost complete, and upstairs should be done this week.  It's amazing what the addition of Cornice does to the plastering.

On Friday we will have our stairs installed!  The kids are really excited as they will finally be able to go upstairs and see their bedrooms, bathroom and playroom.

Everything going well we will then get timber floors dropped off next week.  Joe is also hoping to get tilling underway soon, and then install the vanities and laundry cabinets before Christmas.  Have hit a bit of a snag as the skirting we want will take around a month to arrive, but there is plenty of work for Joe's guys to do in the meantime.

Outside is not progressing quite so quickly.  Still waiting for renderer to come back and finish mouldings and final coat of paint.  Also hoping that the retaining wall and concrete for outside paving goes in this/next week, so that Joe can install deck of Alfresco before Christmas.  Thankfully this does not impact on works inside.

Fingers crossed everything goes to plan!
