Day 29: Slab Preparation

They started the slab preparation yesterday afternoon in the rain & continued today. Seems that they are planning to pour the concrete very soon.

Day 27: Piers Done

All the piers were done, so hopefully we'll have the slab done soon, weather permitting.

Day 21: Nothing

Nothing's been done for the last 2 weeks. We still haven't got the piers & slab done yet. Guess the weather been too wet for them to be able to do it. Hopefully we'll get a bit more of sunshine the next few days so that they can start work again.

Day 7: Pipes, Drainage, Meter Box & Retaining Wall

Work is continuing, they've now installed the Meter Box, Retaining Wall, Drainage & Pipes.

Luke the SS called me & told me that they are going to do the piering this week & Slab to be poured either on Monday/Tuesday, weather permitting. Followed by meeting on site after the slab has been poured.

Day 3: Temp Fence, Temp Toilet & Cage for Rubbish

Temporary fence is up today. Temporary toilet & cage for rubbish are also delivered.

Day 1: Site Start

Finally we have commencement of building work. Work to be completed within 160 days of today, fingers crossed it will be before Christmas.
