One week to PCI and Counting


Front balcony, balustrading done

View of kitchen splashback through a window
and with the sunlight. Colour is green!!!

Kitchen splasback again, different angle

Store/Linen shelving, didn't expect this
to be shelved so we were wrapped when
we saw it

Walk in robe[hers] shelving

Just a quick update with only one week to PCI. As you can see from the photos more finishing touches have been added. In recent times we have been locked out so it's hard to see what else has been done or still needs to be finished. The main things that I can see that still have to be done are, the water tank, lots of paint touch ups and the garage door. I've noticed that many of the issues we may raise at PCI have already been noted and rectified. There has been a site clean, inside and out, fly screens have been fitted to all opening windows and it really is starting to look almost complete. Fingers crossed for a fairly non- eventful Practical Completion Inspection!!!

I Don't Know What's More Exciting...


Pantry with sink and tap, could I
be any further away?

Front balcony tiling, balcony
railing still to be done

Mirror and shower screen installed
in upstairs bathroom

Laundry taps fitted, from afar again

Powder room mirror and tap

Powder room toilet, same as
master ensuite toilet

Kitchen sink with vegie sprayer

Bath in walk in robe

Final coat of render done

Garage roof done

Render to facade done, lights fitted

Ensuite shower installed

Ensuite basins and mirror installed
As you can tell by the title and by the pictures, I managed to get in and get some shots.
It really is true, I don't know what I get more excited by. The fact that I get to see the progress that's been made or the fact that I can get inside the house.
Things have continued to move along and it looks as if many of the issues we may pick up at PCI have already been addressed.
Electricians have been in, plumbers have begun, rendering has been completed and whoever puts in mirrors has done their job. As each thing is checked off our list, it seems to become more and more real.
Three weeks to PCI and counting.

Tiling, PCI and Handover

Ensuite vanity and floor tiles
Tiling has been completed although the above pictures do not show tiling with grout. I will take more photos next time I get a chance to go inside.
Had a call from our CSC advising us of the PCI [Practical Completion Inspection] and Handover dates. Exciting but scary to think it isn't that far away. Our PCI will be on the 30th July, then handover on the 6th of August, if all goes well.
Called past the house on Tuesday and could see the electricians were there along with some other tradies. Didn't have time to go in so, will try another day.
Still in the process of organising flooring and concreting, the pressure is on now!!!
