More work was done on the house and shed this week.
I will do 2 posts, house post and shed post.
House...
The deck was built, the eaves went up, the first fix electrical went in, the internal and external wall insulation went in and the gyprock was done.
Issues...We can't go a week without something.
The site manager called me Wednesday morning while I was at work demanding that we install water access close to the house for his trades to use.
He said no work can continue until this is done.
I went off!!!
We asked Sarah Homes and the site manager if they required water or power at the house months ago.
We were told then that water and power won't be required, and the water meter at the front fence will do. If the trades need water closer, then Sarah Homes will provide a hose.
Now he wants water...and he wants it now!
I didn't know what to do, I couldn't just leave work and go buy 120 meters of garden hose + there is no tap to connect it to anyway.
Solved...So I called my plumber for advice, my awesome plumber went up to the block later that day and installed a temp 25mm poly hose from the water meter to a temp tap near the house.
Sue went up to the house on Tuesday morning and asked Sarah Homes' electrician to install some speaker wires in the wall frames for us. He did, at no cost, we supplied the wire.
