Painting has commenced – or, more accurately, commenced and nearly finished. The inside looks complete and the eaves, porch and back alfresco all have an undercoat. I would imagine that they would be ‘finished’ in the next few days. However, the front façade is still not finished so I am guessing that the painters will have to return at some stage to do this, plus some of the skirting is still missing (where the cabinetry was put in) so it will be the same story there. I am happy with the colour – the walls are a slightly off white to contrast with the trims and ceiling. However, I can see through the paint in several places – even just be looking through the window – to the plaster beneath, so it looks like it needs another coat. I will be adding that to the list of things to tell the Site Supervisor – not that I am getting anything at all from him lately. I feel that I can’t complain because at least the build is progressing, however it does feel like I am talking to a brick wall sometimes.
Backtracking a bit, the bricks were cleaned a few weeks back and the stone benchtops are in. Moving forward, the tiles have been delivered so I am guessing that is next. This actually concerns me a bit as there are a few things that need finishing off before the bathroom walls get tiled – two power points are still missing, and I need to talk to the tiler about the feature tiles, as we need to change the location. I will send yet another email off to the SS tomorrow and hopefully get some sort of response.
Fingers crossed!

Definitely looks like progress to me!
