Monday's Update...ACTION, ACTION, ACTION

There was a fair amount of action at the house today. The roof tilers returned and the chippies turned up and to start work on the Conservatory.

Tomorrow, the brickies will arrive (we hope) to start the front staircase and fix some brickwork. The concretors are scheduled to arrive on Thu/Fri to form-up and pour the Ground Floor balcony slab and the outside staircase. The Insulation company is booked in for Friday and the Gyprocking should happen from Monday.

The Plan for this week (I hope so, anyway)...

Hi everyone,
The plan for this week is:
Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday:

• Sentinal Alarms to arrive and install security system, intercom system, home music distribution system, surround sound wiring, and ducted vacuum pipework.
• Sparkie to return and finish Level 1 electrical and external light points.
• Harvey Norman Air Conditioning - install the ActronAir ductwork and the condensing unit.
• Deliver bricks required for the external staircase (7 stairs).
• Deliver roof tiles to complete the tiling (and re-lay the area that was laid poorly).
• Install Wall & Ceiling Insulation.
• Deliver the Gyprock and get ready to sheet the joint the following week (hopefully).

That's it for now, hope all goes according to plan - fingers crossed PLEASE ;-)

BELOW: ...here is an interesting BEFORE and AFTER (work in progress):

We have been wired (but not for sound - yet)

The Sparkies were hanging out at the Brown Mansion today. They have done an awesome job but unfortunately as there are so many lights and wiring needed that they ran out of time and/or wire as there are a few things missing that they need to complete. They are scheduled to return on Monday. Monday we are also expecting the other workers to arrive, one from Sentinal Alarms who will install the alarm system, closed circuit surveillance systesm, ducted vacuuming, home music hub, intercom, speakers, TV points, internet cabling and phone points, and second, Harvey Norman Air Con to come in and install the air conditioning system.
We know our SS is trying to do everything possible to keep the progress of the house at a steady pace.

C ya...
