Roof over our head

Visited the site last weekend and as mentioned by SS the roof was in fact pretty much complete! Really impressed with progress and the pace of works. I think it will save us some rent money if we can complete early. 

Bricks were also delivered. SS had said that they would be delivered on Friday. And yes they were infact delivered :) 

Two things we noticed and had some questions about:
1. Alfresco stacker door direction
2. Universal colour bricks

First one is quite major and something that we missed. The 3 stacker door at the back slides from left to right. This means we get 
a) less space to put L shaped lounge (probably wouldn't fit)
b) hardly any view from Alfresco to TV in living room.

Wife really wanted that changed even if it costs us extra. So I called SS and he said it is still doable since bricklayer starts Tuesday. He will organise to get it done and have a variation raised. 

Also asked about the universal colour bricks and SS confirmed that they are for the front facade feature (maroka finish).

  2. Thanks mate.
    Bricks are 'Gravel'. Brickwork has started but there are some inconsistencies in brick colour. I'm not sure if that is a good thing or bad thing. Will speak to SS.
