Week 26


A good week for bricklaying. The sides are now complete and work continues around the back. Brackts have been installed for the solar panels. Panels will go on next week.


I'm happy with the sub floor vents that I found. They match perfectly to the bricks.


The finished southern side. Eaves will be finished later. No bricklayers next week but I have been told they will return the following week to get us to lock up. Looking forward to that.

Week 24 and 25


Most windows are in now. Bays windows are waiting for engineering specs and the dorma windows will go in once we have a mobile scaffold to reach them from inside.


A team of bricklayers start next week to get us closer to lock up. They won't finish next week but hopefully they'll be able to get us a long way.


 Some internal views. Once we get bricked up we can start on the inside.

Week 20 -23


Things slowed as expected over the Christmas break. Carpenters worked hard to get the frame finished, braced and tied down before Christmas.


The roofers came in for hell week when the temperatures were 40 degrees plus all week. Thursday and Friday peaked at 44 degrees.


They finished Saturday. Now windows will start going in.
