8.10.2013 Electrical Wiring

Its almost been a week since our roof was finished. The electrical and plumbing rough in started last week and is almost finished too. Our site supervisor rang me today to book in an electrical walkthrough before plastering starts. This will be our first official walkthrough which is booked in for Thursday morning.

In the meantime the bricks have been washed and they just look awesome. The bricklayers did an amazing job. Although I am still not happy with the wash though as the mortar is still visible on the bricks. I will be speaking to the supervisor when I meet him on Thursday. But on the positive note the mix and match of the two bricks have really come off well. The two bricks really complement each other. If you see in the pictures below you will notice how silver brick have two shades which really gives the house a warmth feel and the pepper bricks for the pillars gives a great contrast. The Monument colour roof also contrast really well.

The front cladding has also been installed and we are really happy with how it looks. Our eaves have been completed too.

Our neighbour at the back have got the fence up so one less side of fencing to worry about. The next door neighbour were getting their driveway done and I caught up with the concreter and got a quick quote for getting our driveway and alfresco concreted. His quote wasn't too bad .
