At last things feel like they are starting to come together. It’s been a glorious week on site weather wise so the painters have been cracking on with the outside painting that was left to do – base boards, steps and the final fiddly bits.
Inside the joinery fittings are going in with the picture rails, feature archway, fireplace, wardrobe doors and at long last the front door is in – although the lock didn’t work so that’s been sent back to be replaced.
Next week the ceilings are being spray painted and the tiler will be laying the bathroom and floor tiles. Then it will be two weeks of intensive painting indoors before the plumbing and electrics get finalised and the kitchen goes in.
At last we’ve got a handover date – 1 November – so we’re all systems go to get things organised for a move on Friday 2 November. That’s of course as long as there are no delays on anything. If you can cross your fingers for us that might be helpful!
