New site supervisor- update

I just had a call from our recently appointed site supervisor (the amount of staff turnover in the building industry is staggering). I had a good chat to our new SS and things are sounding positive. The build was held up slightly by the lack of availability of the brickies, but that seems to have resolved itself now. He gave me a rough timetable of what is planned.

 

Now- currently bricking the window sills on the top floor

Later this week- the void protection will be taken down and the stairs installed, eaves should be installed.

Next week- Bricks cleaned on top floor and then scaffolding taken down. Kitchen cabinets should be fitted, and the brickies should return to brick the window sills on the bottom floor and brick the garage.

He has us penciled in for our PCI (practical completion inspection) in mid-October with handover expected to be a couple of weeks after that.

 

We are not holding our breath as the contracted completion date is mid-January, but it is very exciting to think that we may be in our new house in less than three months!
