A hive of activity!

When I visited the house this morning it was a hive of activity.

The tilers were there doing the bathroom tiles and finishing the kitchen wall tiles. The floor tiles in the ensuite, bathroom, laundry, entry, kitchen, dining and living room are all complete (minus the grout).

The painter was back - doesn't look like he was there at all last week.

and...

The heating guys were installing our central heating.

There's still quite a bit to go...

  • Finish tiling
  • Finish painting
  • Finish heating installation
  • Brick clean
  • downpipes
  • shower screens and mirrors
  • plumbing fit-off
  • electrical fit-off
  • robe doors and shelving
  • door knobs
  • garage door
  • carpets
  • driveway
  • ceiling insulation
  • house clean and site clean

I didn't get to meet with the SS when I was there this morning (mix up with appointment times) so I have no idea what the latest prediction for completion is. Given all that is left to do I tend to think that we are still at least 4 weeks from completion - I happy to be proven wrong on this though.

So now for the bit that you've been waiting for - pictures!!



Entry tiles - they're filthy from all the muddy workboots traipsing in...

Kitchen tiling - we're not sure what's happening here... there's a section to the left of the window that's not done but we've checked the plans and it's certainly supposed to be done. I didn't really notice until I was looking through the photos so didn't ask the tilers about it (doh!)
