Gyprock

23/04/14 - Gyrock and cornice for garage etc was delivered today. Not sure when they will be starting as the carpenter hasnt been yet to rectify the inspection issues.

26/4/14 - Called past the house today to find 2 guys hard at work hanging gyprock. Quite suprised considering it is a saturday, and the day after ANZAC day..... not that im complaining. They got a heap done, hopfully the carpenter returns on monday to fix the inspection issues before they hang it all up.

29/4/14 - The gyprock/plasterers have been hard at work at the house for the past 2 days. Ive called past each afternoon at 5:30pm to find them still working so havent been able to get inside for a look. Hopefully will get in tomorrow afternoon.

30/4/14 - Finally got in! Still a few areas to finish off, and at least another coat of plaster to go before its finished but it looks great. Its so nice walking around and seeing the rooms being transformed. The skirting, arcitraves, door jams, and internal doors have been delivered, as well as some more timber frame work - which I think might be for above the garage door and a void in the powder room.

1/5/14 - Plastering continued today. Called past at 6pm to find the tradies only just starting to pack up and washing there tools by mobile phone light!!

4/5/14 - Have been calling past daily to find tradies hard at work everyday from early morning till after dark, so have been unable to sneak in to see whats been happening. I'm presumming the plasterers finished last night after working all weekend. Will try to get in tomorrow.

5/5/14 - The plastering is finished, and it looks great. Was only able to get pics of the garage and alfreco as we have been locked out :(. Having a walk thru with the SS on thursday afternoon so will take more then.

Independant Frame Inspection

17/04/14 - Today we had an independant frame inspection done and within 24 hrs we had a very detailed report with pictures emailed to us. Very glad we had this done as he has picked up on a few things that will need to be rectified before the gyprock can be installed. Doesnt seem to be anything major, so hopefully the SS will get onto it tuesday to get it all fixed up.

22/04/14 - SS rang and advised that the carpenter will be on site tomorrow to fix the issues found in the report. Hopefully this doesnt hold up the gyprocking too much.

Walk Thru No 2

17/04/14 - Matt called past the block today to have a look at whats been done other the past few weeks while he has been away and the SS was there so offered to take him for a walk through. SS explained that the windows that were ordered were the wrong sizes and bal ratings, so they needed to be replaced. SS also advised that our frame inspection was being done later in the day so that insulation could be installed on tuesday with gyprocking to start on wednesday. He said we will be at lockup in 3 weeks, just waiting on the garage doors. Matt also asked if he had a rough idea of when handover would be, and he said he has us down for PCI for 11th June, but allow 2 weeks after that just incase. So fingers crossed worse case senario we will be in around mid july.

Insulation

16/04/14 -  Insulation was delivered today, will hopefully get installed next week after our frame inspection

22/04/14 - Most of the insulation was installed today, carpenter will be back tomorrow to fix the issues picked up in the inspection report, so hopefully the rest of the insulation can be finished off and gyprocking can start

Windows

14/04/14 - Today we had some new replacement windows delivered. The front left hand corner window needed to be replaced as it wasnt compliant with our Bal rating. And it looks as though new replacement windows for the loungeroom, dining and rumpus as well. Not sure why they are getting replaced, whether it's because they arent compliant as well, or whether its because they arent the right size.
