Brickwork Finished, Now Onto The Roof.

Today the Brickies finished out at the house.  The guys did a really good job and were patient with all the window issues. Thanks boys!

What's next on the long list of things to do.........Roof Frames

I managed to get a photo of some of the roof trusses when they were delivered.



But will get a photo in the next few days of the trusses on the roof. M started today and in half a day they managed to get 8 trusses up. Which was pretty good going considering it rained on an off.

The weekend and next week is all about the roof. Can't wait to get the house to lock up!



I've added these photos of the brick work finished, but they aren't very good photos. I'm finding it hard to get a shot of the whole house without stuff in the way.

Brick Work Has Started

The brick work has started, which is great to see.
The last few weeks out at the block have been crazy to say the least. This build has certainly not been without dramas. It seems new problems are arising daily. 
I'll take this opportunity to say a big thank you to the guys who have been working out there with M. You have been very patient and we thank you for all your hard work.

Now back to the bricks. Here are some pics.






The bricks are called 'Florentine Limestone' and I am happy with the way they look. The brickies are doing a great job laying them and I can't wait to see it all finished.



Now that the frames are up it is great to be able to walk through the house and check out the layout. I am mostly happy with what we have come up with. There are a few things that I wish we had of changed, minor things but I will always see them!

Once the bricks are up the next step is the roof.....
I wonder what issues will rise....there is bound to be heaps!!!
