Well the painting is done, well sort of as they made a couple of mistakes, like painting our front door and side light 2 different colours when we said we want the whole lot Manor Red, inside & out.
The also stuffed up the main beam on the veranda and got a little paint on our ensuite vanity unit but overall they look to have done a decent job.
We have a water tank and all the AirCon / Heater vents are in except one and the return air and control units are on the wall.
We met the tiler on Saturday and they should be finished off tomorrow. The sparkie is due back this week and I assume the plumber won’t be too far behind.
With all this progress you would think we would get in early but alas upon speaking with our Construction Manager we have decided that April 30 it is. He said it maybe a week or two early but definitely April 30 with an PCI on or about April 20.
I have decided on certainty then I can organise the removalists, furniture delivery, foxtel and the bed all to come within a coupe of days of handover. We plan to stay with my in-laws for a few days because we can un-pack and sort everything out, install gates etc without the kiddies under our feet and then by Wednesday after 4 days hard yakka it should all be done, well nearly all done.
We had a second “Blind” guy come a do a measure & quote which I am waiting on but we have decided not to worry about the outside blinds until spring, we will know which windows will need it by then and we simply can’t afford it now. The last guy quoted $3250 for 6 outside blinds last week and that money can be better spent right now. He did quote $5000 for the inside blinds that consisted of 10 double rollers and 3 single roller blinds of various sizes.
I have posted photos of the front door and the water tank as well as a few other items, I am sure you will work it out.

There is one outstanding item and that’s the driveway, more specifically the cross-over, it needs to be moved and we are awaiting the quote for that one, I have a bad feeling it will hurt and we have no choice if we want a functional driveway.
