Framing Day 76 - Internal Fit out and pull through

Now that the nice plaster has been painted, it's time we cut holes in it!

Heatlamps installed in the other bathrooms. We have SpeedHeat in-floor heating in the master ensuite.

Framing Day 61 - Stairs in, Cabinetry In, Doors on!

It did not take long for the stairs to be put into place! The cabinetry was also put in.

The only change we made post site start, was to have the laundry door hung the other way (a zero cost variation). Our Site Supervisor was ok with this. Needless to say, the door was hung the wrong way. The door frame is made in the factory (they do not do it on site), and despite the many assurances to the contrary, it was hung the wrong way. I informed David, and I got "Oh No! You're kidding me!" Nope.







The missing panel was damaged and PD picked it up, and ordered a new one.




Now that's a galley sink! The AFA-768!

Not quite like the world of style.

A view of the dwarf door under the stairwell.

The door was still hung the wrong way.

The lounge has been walled in to make a theatre room. We've made a feature of the plumbing stack.

We have front doors!

I love that stairwell!

And it's detail.

Why is this not finished flush, why around the corner?

Framing Day 57 - Lots done whilst we were away!

At some point we've advanced to lockup.

The last time I saw wiring like this, I was in India! The wires are labelled, thankfully!

The lights and junction points have been pulled through!

We've been plastered!

Stairwell delivered!

Framing Day 36 - Plaster has arrived!

It is amazing just how quickly this can come together. Two days have passed since the last visit, and the amount of heavy lifting (glad it's not my back!) done is staggering.

It's a big house, with a LOT of plaster!
