A huge week- Tiles, basins, heating, cooling and a driveway!

The visit to the house today saw the delivery of the tiles, the builder wanted us down there to see if the tiles we had selected were delivered correctly, and to see if we were still happy with them before they were laid down.  Here is a photo of the mountain of tiles that the tilers will face when they walk in the door for this job, a total of 9 stacks of tiles - not a job I'd like to be doing.

A little difficult to see with the lighting of the photo, but here is one of the tiles as it will appear, they are a latte colour, which matches the neutral scheme really well.

This is the decorative tile that we have selected for the showers, it will be cut into a long strip and laid as a feature.

The basins had also been installed when we got there today and the kids were very excited to see that the holes that had been cut into the benches were now filled with basins.  Below is the ensuite.

Below is the basin in the main bathroom.

 

The evaporative cooling and heating were also installed this week, here is a picture of the cooler up on the roof.

The vents for the heating and the cooling are also completed.
The electrician has also been and installed a number of down lights and "normal" light fittings throughout the house.

A few weeks ago when we walked through the house I noticed that the laundry didn't have any overhead cupboards, DJ spoke to the builder and they arranged these for us, I was wrapped when I saw them today, very handy to keep things up high from tiny little hands!

Finally the concrete driveway was poured today, hopefully we will be back there later this weekend to get some more photos when it is a little drier, the concrete was still wet today when we were there, in fact the boys were still working on it and the last concrete truck was just leaving as we arrived.
