Drive way poured

 

Today the driveway was poured and will be cut Sunday or monday. Monday gone all the electrical was done the air con guys came put the vents in today, there's not much left to do. The few things to go is carpet, main floor tiling, change the handles as they put wrong ones in, mirror doors on wardrobes, kitchen appliances and outside just needs the air con unit.

START OF A DRIVEWAY

 

Today they started the driveway we met Fred on site the concreter as we do most trades as its the only way you get things the way you want and there always happy to help and give you there advice. we changed from gunmetal to charcoal as its darker and matchers the bricks better. we also straightened the edging of the driveway up so now theres more driveway and doesnt go on any angles. Part of the fence was finished and inside the house bath, toilets, taps, towel rails, were installed along with the WRONG door handles as soon as i seen them i knew they wernt what we picked they look so ugly! so i rang Richard and he will fix it up.

FENCING ISSUES

Our nab put up there fence without contacting us, its left us with a bit of a head ake now as we need retaining walls, they used bricks but we want to do wood sleepers so might have to rip to fence up and start again. We were luckly that our 3 back nab all made contact and we got together and all agreed. we went 2 200x50 sleepers couldnt be happier.
