The bricks still need to be cleaned and there's a huge pile of rubbish our the front, but other than that, it's all done. We assume the cleaning will be completed today.
I called RedInk yesterday to clear up the payment process, apparently they'll send a letter to us telling us we've reached a payment stage and then we just need to send a letter to our bank giving authorisation for the payment to be taken out. Whilst I was on the phone to Hayley I asked what the scheduled completion time for the bricks was and she said today or tomorrow and also that a roof carpenter is booked for this week also. That was quite a surprise because every other house we've watched go up has had the wood for the roof delivered a little bit after the bricks are finished and then a few weeks after that the roof is started.
Given this small time frame, we're going to have to get the 3rd party inspection done quick, so I gave them a call and got the pricing for different stages emailed to me and they also told me they just require about 2 days notice once the house is at plate height. So basically I need to call them first thing tomorrow morning and book the inspection in.
That's about it for today, here are some pictures:
Here's a panorama from the living room, every room looks so much bigger without piles of bricks in them.
A finished wardrobe.
A whole in the wall appeared today as well, I assume it's for the circuit breakers and RCDs, but I'm only guessing. It would be a pretty silly spot for it really, bery child accessible.
Our finished walk in robes, looking at the pictures now, I was thinking they were supposed to have doors...I'll have to check the plans. The full height openings make them look quite tall though.
Our front entrance way.
That's all for today, by the sounds of things, there won't be much of a break after the bricks, so there'll probably be an update soon.
