Day 3 of Excavation

Well, they were back there for yet another day of rock breaking labour. It now looks flat and smooth. For some reason it, doesn't look like what we pictured. We picked up that the wall that they were going to build is a lot higher that we originally though. Made a complaint, and they will be back to fix the levels. See my son in one of the pictures, he is 7 is roughly 1.2metres tall. None of the walls are supposed to be more than 1metre tall. Not only does this make it more expensive, but engagement of engineers is required to properly design a retaining wall.

Plants

Today shrubs were planted and mulch laid. The flooring guy was here laying the underlay, tomorrow he does the carpet. No photos, cos I couldn't get in.

Landscaping done

Today the ground was wet, but the landscapers got the job done before lunch time. I also noticed the house had a big tidy up and looks nice and shiny. The countdown is on, and the handover inspection has been booked. 3 Days Paint to front of wall Stair/handrail polish final coats??

Now we have power

Today the meter was finally installed. After receiving a notice that it would be completed with 10 business days, it finally took 12 business days. Landscapers were back to scrape and level the yard ready for plants, edging, gravel and turf. Can't wait to see the finished product. Fences were installed on the front wall. Judging by the pictures, it looks like the blinds are going to be installed and carpet started soon. What's Left 10 Days Paint to front of wall Stair/handrail polish final coats??
