Tiling completed and painting has started

So tiling was completed on Monday with the grouting and everything. We are very happy with Rick the tiler he does a fabulous job for our wet area. Love how the tiles turn out as well. It was hard to picture the tiles together when selecting at color selection but very glad the tiles we selected went well together so that's a big relieved.

Painting has started last week and they have painted the façade, external eaves and downpipes, internal doors, the ceiling, first coat for walls as well as stained the cedar cladding/pantry door/bi fold doors.

Plantation Homes has advised they going to have the fence rectified near the end of the build close to handover so everything works out well.

We noticed the sub-contractor dug out part of the concrete base to install the down pipes to the in-ground pipe and we a bit concern it might affect something in the future so we might give a call to our site supervisor to check just to be on the safe side.

We pop in today to take some photos and surprisingly the painter was on site installing internal doors and front entrance door so we had the chance to take some photos inside :)
