Stormwater pit preparation

We spoke to our plumber yesterday and was told that the storm water pipework would be laid and also the pit would be dug on Friday. As we are installing the Ausdrain EnviroModules ourselves (click blog title for info) we had to organise getting them delivered and also 9 ton of washed course river sand. We phoned around for the best price and have organised for it to be delivered Saturday. Ausdrain were very efficient and able to get the equipment required for the pit delivered the next day (Thursday). We organised for the courier to call us 30 mins before they would arrive at the site with them so we could be there to help unload. Unfortunately we did not receive a call until we found out they had already been and gone back to the depot with them. Great! So we organised to meet them just after 9am. They then didn't show up until 10.30am.



Also got a call from our Site supervisor telling us the rain had put things back and the storm water pit and pipework will now be done on Monday. So we've had to rebook the sand to be delivered on Tuesday as it will be in the way otherwise. Looking at the weather forecast things aren't looking good for Monday or Tuesday so it could be put back again. It's a shame as the frame was due to be delivered Tuesday, but this will have to be put back now.

Well at least we managed to get the EnviroModules assembled ready to put in the storm water pit, even if it did rain a lot of the time. There basically 72 glorified milk crates.
