Weatherboards Start...

Went to the block on the weekend and Pete was there. For all those who don't know, thats Renee's brother. His a chippy so has been doing a lot of the work around the house. He was preparing the top part for the weatherboards to go up. I measured one of the windows and worked out i wanted it 13cm to the right. He happily moved it for me. Well.. he moved it, dunno about whether or not he was too happy about it :-) Anyway... That will be great as it allows us to have a bigger fridge and has the window up there perfectly centered on our kitchen bench.

First 2 photos are taken last night and show the weatherboards going up and the eaves are done.

Last photo shows the roofers were back and have put on the remaining gutters. The main reason they were there was to put the flushing on the balcony.

Things should be pretty busy over the next week. Wonderwood for the balcony was arriving this morning at 8am this morning. Weatherboards should be finished today and then they will start on the balcony.

Painters should be there in the next day or so to paint the weatherboards. They need to be painted before the scaffolding can be moved to the other side of the house.

Other rumor i hear is that brickies will be onsite later this week to start bricking.

All we need now is some nice weather.........
