Doors and Hotwater

30-06-2012 - DLG came back and installed the glass doors for the two big sliders.







The plumbers also came back and installed the Apricus evacuated tube hot water service. We decided to go with the 30 tube system and a 315 litre storage tank.



James continued on with the brick around the south side of the house and the back of the garage.

Bath

26-06-2012 - I took a bit of time today and made up a bath frame out of some of the left of steel from the frames and trusses.. I also made up a fake wall with a niche in the ensuite shower.




Front door.

26-06-2012 - Bricks under the outdoor area all finished, and the front of the house started.

Our incredible expensive front door and frame showed up, we have left the door uninstalled until the plaster is finished to avoid any damage to it.






Services Rough-in..

17-06-2012 - Both plumbers and electricians have completed their rough-ins. We have added a few extra power point here and there, and also decided to run the main switch board in the linen store room. This will make it easier for the initial wiring, helpful to reset any tripped circuits, and also alot easier to add extra circuits later on as the board isn't on an outside wall.

We spent extra time making sure the 15mm foil board was completly sealed around all windows, doors and joins.




Our brickie has continued around the house.







3 phase mains and internal light and power point circuits

Rear roller door in the garage filled in and a double glased window fitted.


We changed the ensuite window from 600mm down to 450mm to make some extra room for the mirror.
