They finished the rest of the inside yesterday and started on the outside render.

There is only the porch and garage to do now

They are putting us on the list today to be locked up too

If you must get obsessed with eaves at least learn to spell the word properly

I think your house is looking great Tiawamutu

Default Re: Tiawamutu's House Build

Spoke to the site foreman this morning, and we are defo on the list for the 'house' to be locked up

It's coming on so quick now. In the last week and a half they have put the roof on, done all the electrical wiring, put the gas pipes in, rendered all of the internal walls, and most of the render that is going on the front of the house

They've also delivered the ceiling panels, and the coving, and have laid it all around the house ready for when they put it up. They hopefully should be starting that today, as I can't see them leaving it lying around like that for too long as it's over the doorways, and preventing access to the rooms.

OOoh How exciting. Must be great to be able to see rooms now. Have you decided on colours, or is it all pretty much standard?

Hello Tiawamutu I've been following your house build from the start but haven't actually posted on this thread.

Just like to say that the house is really starting to take shape and is looking good. Bet you will feel a sense of satisfaction when you finally take your first look before opening your own front door

Then they fun really begins

We chose all the colours for the house at pre selection. We have chosen neutrals throughout the house really.
