Frame Stage

Immediately after the slab was poured, we've moved to the Frame Stage.  Frame for the ground floor is up!  How exciting to see that it's now taking shape!

This is the porch

This is the entry

This is the hallway

This is my future home-office / study

Haven't decided yet what to do with this room; formal lounge or formal dining or music room 2.

This will be the theatre / music room

This is the open plan kitchen and dining room.

This is the open plan living room / dining room

This open plan area (combination of living, meals and kitchen) looks bigger in the display home, not quite sure how it's going to turn out in ours.  Hopefully it will be as nice as the display home.

We've got a Slab!

We hired an independent inspector for every stages.  The first inspection was the Pre-pour inspection.  It was performed by Darbecca on Monday Nov 5.  Some issues were reported and sent to our site supervisor. All issues were minor and rectified before the slab pour.  This is how it looks like now after the slab was poured.

(Couldn't take a proper photo because it was hailing.)

Pre-pour Inspection

Our pre-pour inspection has been postponed a few times for various reasons.  The latest one was because of the strong wind and massive dust storm that happened last Friday Nov 2nd.  It was the scariest storm I've experienced in Melbourne.

When the rain stopped, I decided to have a look at our site.  I could not get out of the car because of the very strong wind.  But just by looking outside my car window, i could see how badly affected our site was.  The fence was blown down. Some materials were scattered and broken.😞
