Week Nineteen: Painting, Rainwater Tank

Huge painting week this week. Painters have been in every day applying the third coat to the walls. The alfresco ceiling has been painted, as well as the front door and the cedar cladding.

We had to choose the best available stain as none were really what we wanted. The door /cladding stain is called "Rosewood" and it was the closest option to the timber-look garage door.  We were concerned it would look a little orange.

It does indeed. It's not hideous, but down the track we'll definitely sand it back and retain a little darker, closer to the caoba stain.

The gutters have been painted, as well as the power-box.

Next week will be shower screens, glass splash back, air conditioning installed and touch-ups.

The week after that will be driveway.

Following week will be flooring and carpet. The walk-through will happen soon after.

Our SS has given us a rough timeframe, and it looks probable that we should have the keys by the third or fourth week of November.

Homeward bound....
