The Hebel Walls are just about done..

Hi everyone, yes its been a while since the last blog update so here we go with the current status report;

The Hebel walls are being completed today.

The renderers are due tomorrow or Friday as is the tradesman who attaches the linear boards to the front facade.

We are waiting for the electrician to finish wiring the lights...(don't talk to us about lighting... its a point of frustration at present!!)

We are also waiting for the aircon people to finish installing the last duct downstairs, who in turn are waiting for our project manager to instruct the plumbers to come back and move the pipes they have put in the way of the duct...another contentious issue...dont ask!!

Wall insulation is in.

External doors now have handles...bonus! (Even though the front door handle does not work properly.)

Plaster and cornice is in a big pile downstairs waiting to be installed after all of the above has been sorted.

So, heres the lastest external pics...

The outside walls take shape

The concrete Hebel panels have begun to go up this week.  The tradies have worked through the weekend and just about completed the lower outside wall section all the way round.  Scaffolding will be erected tomorrow and then they'll be back to finish the hebel.  It was all action last Friday, with the electrician, plumber, carpenter, project manager and hebel builders all onsite at the one time.  Its the first time since the frame, that we've seen so much action!
