Frame and Windows- Things we love this week

After a week delay whilst we waited for our joists and roof trusses the site has kicked back into life with the frame going up and the windows being delivered and some even being installed.  We have started to get a real appreciation for the size of the rooms and are most impressed with the loftiness of our upgraded ceiling heights.




From the front.


The best part has been hanging out at the folks place and watching all the work going on next door.  Our vantage point has allowed us to see how the framers  have put together each wall on the ground before standing them all up.  Kind of fascinating for construction-geeks like us.  





The neighbours balcony proves an excellent place to watch it all come together.



The roof tiles are going on next (actually now- there will be another post soon) and it's all fingers crossed for the hebel to go on at the end of next week.  

We hired an independent building inspector and they did the Frame Stage inspection yesterday.  I will keep you posted on the report which we should have by the weekend.
