Frame (Day 8)

Went to see the construction again this morning and I could see the builder was installing windows and sliding doors.

Took these pictures below at night after finishing work, this time it wasn't that dark because it is almost full moon.

Frame (Day 7)

Today I could only go see the construction in the morning, there was no time to see it at night after work. The progress is really looking good, I am almost certain that by tomorrow the roof trusses will complete.

Frame (Day 6)

Finally the weather was nice this morning and I could see someone is trying to put up our roof truss.

My wife and I came back at night to see the progress and we could see that the trussing has almost complete. Looks like we will be on schedule here. Fingers crossed.

Frame (Day 5)

The weather today is not at our side. It rained almost the the whole day, so the roof trussing couldn't be completed; however we could see that they have got them ready to be installed. The sliding door at the laundry area has been installed. Piers at the alfresco have been done. We are hoping the weather will improve tomorrow so we can complete the frame stage on time. 

We have arrange a third party (independent) inspector to inspect the frame stage and slab on Monday next week. We are hoping with this independent inspector, Carlisle Homes will do their job better/

Frame (Day 4)

The left side frame was being built when we went there. Looks like by the end of next week frame stage will be completed - provided the weather is on our side :)

Frame (Day 3)

It's a beautiful day this morning when I visited our property to look at the progress and I could see the framers were continuing their work from where they left yesterday

Frame was commenced

Just heard back from our CLE today that the Framers commenced onsite yesterday, so I decided to go there after work. It was already dark by the time we got there, so I used my Canon Speedlite 580EX to take these pictures and also took them with ISO 5000 (you may be able to see the noise in those pictures)

The slab is done now

Now that the slab is done, we are hoping to get the construction schedule soon; however there is still a few things to be sorted out with Carlisle Homes:

1. Render colour for our fascia is not shown in the plan

2. Shower head in the plan is still not updated with the upgraded option that we chose 

3. Garage door model is not mentioned in the final document

4. Measurement for the overhead cabinets were all wrong

Our CLE is kind of hopeless. Everytime I call her, always goes to her voicemail and 80% of my voicemail are not returned. Tried emailing her too, but again most of the times she would reply after two days. Fingers crossed that everything will be OK and construction can start soon.

The waffle is here

On 15th and 16th of April 2015 they started preparing for the waffle slab. The slab pour itself will be on April 17th.
