Splashback has arrived

Had a quick wander through whilst tradies were on site today installing the air conditioning control panel and thermostat. The kitchen splashback has been installed. The colour is java dusk. I also took a few pictures of the scotia trim around the kitchen benches for those who were interested in seeing this. They also put this scotia at the places where the floor level changed to wet areas. ie toilet, bathroom, laundry. I'm still a bit disappointed by it's appearance, but at least they colour matched the trim to the brushbox floor.

Gerflor

Had a quick look this afternoon to see our gerflor flooring. This took 2 days work as we had
the entire house done in these planks. No carpet for us due to lessons learned from sick kids and indoor pets. I was a bit disappointed to see a scotia trim around the kitchen cabinets. I guess I won't "see" it after a few days of living in the house.
We've also had our flyscreens installed and the portaloo is gone. That thing was really starting to pong. We can also see lots of blue masking tape inside and out. We know we are getting close to the end even though our SS won't give us that elusive date!!
Our back yard is an absolute mess, very wet. MDJ do a great job cleaning up the front yard but they ignore the back yard. We still have blue frames (roof battens?) in the backyard. I don't think I can put them in the garbage bin and the council will not pick them up so MDJ better take em away! I don't want them!!

House has been cleaned

Dropped by for a few minutes today. We couldn't walk too far down the side as the ground was very wet and muddy from the downpour yesterday. The clay had only just started to dry out from the last storm a few weeks ago. Oh well.

We could see that the tiler had returned to finish off the tiling on our front porch and alfresco. The house has been cleaned, possibly this morning, as there were footprints in the sand near the garage. Even though the inside has been "cleaned", there is mud on the floor and walls. There were also some very noticeable hand prints on the walls. Mud on the walls, what the heck?

Our SS has advised that flooring and shower screens will go in sometime this week. Maybe he will call us soon to arrange PCI date. Fingers crossed.
