Lock up- December

We hear from the site supervisor that he is aiming to be at lock up before Christmas, this feels like it might not be possible.  The Hebel has been installed on the top level but the roof for the lower back half of the house is not yet built, never mind tiled.  There are some missing windows and the external doors aren't fixed in place.

Then towards the middle of December there is a flurry of work.  There are fixing carpenters installing doors and robes inside the house.  There is more rendering, electrical and air conditioning works .  Finally as the last week before Christmas closes in, exterior scaffolding comes down and roof scaffolding installed.  The roof frame goes up and within days of Christmas the tiles are on.  WE GOT TO LOCK UP!! 

Top and bottom with Hebel installed but back section without a roof.

With roof trusses on the back section.

With roof tiles in time for Christmas!

...And from the front.

Sure we are without a proper front door but we can still call it lock up.

We meet with our site supervisor who tells us that we will have workers back on site the week after New Years Day.  He also gives us an approximate completion date of late March.  Will we be in before Easter??? Stay tuned!
