Arcitraving

The carpenter started around the 31st of October, we had gone on site to see how things were coming along. It is looking really good. While we were there, our site supervisor arrived. He said the kitchen and vanity units would be in next week. He also mentioned they could be done by Christmas, it would be tight however. Can’t see it ourselves there is still so much to do.

We came back Monday afternoon to see what had been done while we were away for the weekend. There is a problem with the arcitraving it's not the one we ordered! We had noticed it on the floor when we were around on Friday but we weren’t sure where they were using it. The door to the garage has been done in an old fashion traditional arcitraving not the look we are going for.



We checked our contract and it's wrong. We phoned Allcastle to make them aware that they had ordered the wrong materials. They agreed and would rectify the problem as soon as possible. Saved them a bit of cash there…... wonder if there’s a chance of some sort of discount. Lol (laugh out loud)

The front doors are in. We are really happy with the way they look, can't wait to see them stained.

The correct arcitraving has arrived and has been installed on most of the upstairs doors and windows. It's looks much better. This is the upstairs living area .

Site visit

We had a look around inside the house today. Everything is looking good so far. Althought we did notice some of the window frames are slightly damaged in places. We spoke to our Site supervisor about this and he assured us that it will all be put right. It's just one of those things that happens while the building work is going on.

Frame completed

The framework was completed this week. Really impressed with how quick it was done. Just hope they can get the brickwork done and the roof on soon while the weather is good.





Also some windows have been fitted.
