Beer anyone????

Well not quite but the slab was poured on Friday and i am sure it will have it's fair share of beer drunk on it.


On Tuesday the start of the slab framing started and the reo and foam waffles were delivered.










On Wednesday no work was done due to the fact that Melbourne had one of those days when we had monthly average rainfall in one day.


Thursday the concreters were back to finish off the form work.




This is the foundations for the alfresco


The orange disc is the termite guard


The concreters were back early on Friday to pour the slab.


And before we knew it they were gone and it was all done.

More progress this week

We have had quite a busy week considering that it was a short week in Melbourne due to Cup Day.

On Monday the bin and toilet were delivered.



On Wednesday the Meter Box was installed.



On Thursday the water meter installed.



The underground plumbing was done on Saturday.







When the underground works were done on Saturday, the plumber has put this big pink pipe in the middle of where the driveway will be, the red line on the right is the outside of the driveway. We will call our CSC on Monday to see if this is a temporary pipe or permanent, if it is permanent we will ask for it to be moved.



The wetlands are starting to establish their eco-systems now and the local bird life are starting to move in.

The builder was out early on Friday and had the house all pegged out by 8.30am. The front tap and underground plumbing should be finished by the end of the week.
According to our Customer Service Co-ordinator (CSC) the slab will be started either Friday or Monday.



With all the rain on the wekend we have a mini swimming pool where our garage will soon be.
