DAY 134 - Insulation!
Today is Insulation day! These guys are not wasting anytime... We have been in touch with the builder and they are happy to fix our portico. Turns out through all of our plan changes there ended up being a discrepancy between all the plans. Homestead have been fantastic and have been more than willing to help.
DAY 131 - Oops...
01-07-2011
So... We have been looking at the finished product that is our Portico and could not work out why it didn't look right. Until we looked at our plans and we saw in great big writing that there is to be a 100mm Eave to the Portico... Ooops!
Our supervisor is now away for a week and we were told our gyprock is going on next week, so not sure what will happen yet, but I can't imagine anything will happen next week.
Just a tad bit of a screw up by the chippies, but you can't be perfect every time!
