Week 31: Glass blocks, Pantry Shelving and Kitchen Splash back

So its WEEK 31 and there has only been three things that have been done in ONE WHOLE WEEK.

Sigh, you can imagine my frustration at this stage.

1. Glass blocks for granny flat done
2. Pantry shelving completed
3. Kitchen Splash Back in.

Still to be completed:

1. Door locks
2. Rest of the light switches and powerpoint caps need to be placed on.
3. Rails for bathrooms need to be completed.
4. Laundry tub needs to go in.
5. Laundry shoot needs to be cut out
6. Linen & Walk in robe shelving
7. Aircon Unit
8. Carpet
9. Driveway

I feel like this damn list is never ending. Realistically we should be in by now, but who knows when that will be cause our supervisor hasn't been in contact with us for almost TWO WEEKS.

Yeah I can't wait until this is over. To be honest, I am more over it than excited. It sucks.

I don't have pictures this week cause I refuse to give them free marketing this week for only doing THREE things on the list of many to be done. Almost two weeks over the contract date. Wonder what the excuse is this time.........

Week 26: Kitchen Benchtop's & Bathroom Wall Tiles

I know I just gave an update for end of week 25 however, hubby was on site today to check on the build and sent me these photos which practically almost stopped my heart from excitement.

Monday - we have had the wall tiles started, kitchen bench tops went in AND PAINTING HAS STARTED!

One more bit of good news is that hubby spoke to the tiler today and he gave us an insight and said the main floor tiles are due to be laid in 2 weeks along with the carpet after all the inside finishing are done! Does this mean they are going to push to have all the mirrors all the screens. all the everything else done by two weeks? What?! Lets hope this is the case cause I just really need to be in my new home!

Its really starting to look like a home now and I am beyond excited.

Week 24.1: Kitchen is in!

Hi all,

I am very pleased to say that our kitchen is in! We decided this weekend we wouldn't go visit the block (only because we had a few things to do) annnnnd no, we didn't get a chance to go to Beacon lighting or select our blinds. I am a little scared now as we are probably going to be pressed for time

Anyway, hubby's brother stopped by the block as him and his wife are building very close to us and he called to say our kitchen went in this week! Unfortunately we don't really get thorough updates from the supervisor but thats okay as long as our build is going smoothly and things are actually progressing on site.

SS did tell us however that the guy who was doing the doors hurt himself (very sad) so I'm not sure if he will be continuing the job or if they will assign someone else to the job. I'm really hoping this doesn't hold us up any longer than all the delays we have had. I have been seeing on fb that many people have already received their keys to their home and I was so envious!

Soon enough I guess. This week is week 25, so there is 5 weeks left in our contract build time.
I really truly hope they can stick to this and just get it done.

Also, an update... our party wall was supposed to be rendered however it was covered in gyprock so we ended up getting a deduction on our total price as it was factored in on our contract. -$3k. I know its not much, but every cent counts right?

Here are some pictures below thanks to my brother in law :)
