Day 84: Fixing Stage Completed

Got an invoice for Fixing Stage. Things are going on very quickly, they are working inside now & the doors been locked most days, however they didn't lock it today.

Roof Capping was finally fixed.


However, the damage is already done, the heavy rain over the weekend has damaged the ceiling plaster in the ensuite. Water Damage as marked by the plasterer

It seems they are going to replace this panel of plaster.

Day 76: Cornice & Lock Up Stage

Brick work is completed. I think they've done a good job with the bricking.

Cornice is almost done. They must have run out of materials, because the kitchen area was not done yet.



We also received the biggest invoice, lock up stage. I informed them that we are still considering the lock up stage is not completed yet until they fix the roof ridge capping on top of the ensuite. This was supposed to have been fixed last week. We are just hoping the heavy rain last week didn't cause any damage to the ceiling plasterboard under the damaged roof capping. Will have to ask the inspector to specifically look at this area.

Day 62: Repairs are done

Had an onsite meeting with the SS this afternoon. Went through everything on the inspection report & was happy that everything had been fixed with the exception of the front door sill flashing, which I agreed to be done when they are doing the fitting stage.

The brickies been working hard as well, they were onsite on Saturday for half a day & they were onsite today until the rain got too heavy.

The plasterer came to inspect what needs to be done while we were going through the repairs & he said he will start work on Wednesday or Thursday.
