Week 15, plumbers and electricians come back

Went to the house today to meet the electricians to make sure of the placement for the light fittings. Basically when we purchased we designed the layout with the idea of adding more later on, so the positions would have seemed strange to them.
They weren't there, but our supervisor was waiting so I discussed the placement with him.
He also went over what was going to happen from now until hand-over.

The electricians were coming in today to install the light fittings, power points and light switches and anything else electrical that needed doing.

Took the opportunity to grab some quick photos of the tiling job. Have to say that I am pretty impressed with the quality of the work and how the overall look has turned out.

This first photo is the double shower in the ensuite. You know, shower with a friend and save water!


The plumbers had also been in earlier this week to fit the vanity basins, tapware and toilets.

Today there were coming back to replace this laundry bench top. It is going to be reversed as our washing machine is too big to fit in the space you can see here next to the back door.

















I know, this is hardly a glamor shot! But, I didn't really take any photos of the paint job. I did have a good look at the quality of the paint job and again, really impressed. There is a really nice gloss level achieved on the skirts, archs and doors.

This is the only photo were you can get a glimpse of what I am talking about, so I have included it!

Yesterday marked the 10th year that we have been in our current home, and the real estate agent left a message saying that an offer was about to come through - so fingers crossed that it will be a decent offer!

We will be in the house next week to measure up the windows for blinds and bedrooms for carpet. I will take some updated photos then as it all should be very close to being finished.

See you next time :-)
