Handover and Almost In !


Bamboo flooring begins in the meals area.

Driveway formwork and base in preparation
for concrete pour.

Kitchen with bamboo floor. We love it,
it has come up really well.

Carpet in study. Not a great photo for
true colour. 'Eureka' is a purple/brown colour or
aubergine. We love this also. So far we have been
so pleased with how our flooring choices have come
together.

Driveway up close, exposed aggregate.

An almost full view of the driveway.
It is very new and still has a bit of finishing
off to go.

the front door.

What a beautiful blue sky! The driveway again,
the next day.

A shot from the top of the stairs, with
carpet and bamboo floor in view.

Looking up the stairs from the bottom,
just in case you couldn't work that out.

Well there it is! Handover went very well.
Most of the post handover stuff has been completed. Not bad considering we only had handover on the 10th of August.
Last week was full on!
Handover Monday, bamboo floor Tuesday, Wednesday, Carpet Thursday, Friday and then finished Tuesday just gone. Concreting was also done on Thursday and finished Tuesday.
Now all we need to do is move! This should happen in the very near future. Not looking forward to packing/unpacking but can't wait to get into the garden.
I am hoping to keep posting on any progress but this may take a while, things will probably move a bit slower now.
Relle.

Handover Postponed

Today was to be the handover for our home but our SS called earlier in the week to let us know there was still a few things to be finished. Handover is now set for Monday 10th August.
That was okay by us as we would rather things be finished properly than be rushed for handover.
It has buggered up post handover stuff a bit, as we had arranged for bamboo flooring to be delivered this afternoon and installation for Friday and Saturday.
We are now hoping that the bamboo floors can be done on Tuesday, Wednesday because we've got carpet organised for Thursday, Friday. If all goes well it'll all be happening next week. If not, we'll just have to set things back a few days.
Fingers crossed for all things to fall into place!!
