(Thu 28-04 to Sat 30-04)
Painters arrived and finished off the painting of the eaves and weatherboards. From what I could tell, they used Haymes Premium builders white on the eaves and am unsure what brand they used on the weatherboards but the colour is Wattyl - Gravel Chip (A38w).
I was going to paint the 2x 40mm plumbing pipes and the 20mm drain pipe coming from the Evap Cooler on the roof to match the Colorbond whilst the scaffold was still up, but I had a better idea. I asked the painters if they could do it - they agreed and payment terms were a slab. Crown Lager of course ;)
Builder called and discussed progress and said scaffold was booked to be removed Mon or Tue next week (2nd or 3rd May) Guttering, fascia and roofing of the ground floor to be completed next week also - fingers crossed!
He mentioned that he had chipped away the mortar on top of the Portico pillars and that I needed to give him the specs. for the lights which we have purchased for that location. As previously mentioned, the builder forgot to run electrical cable through so will now have to drill down to get cable through.
I sent him my detailed drawing as pictured below.
Do you like the choice of lights for the Portico pillars? They are from Beacon Lighting.
Model: 230301
We looked high and low for a different style to this, but as most of you will find, there is not much out there, so we settled for these. As they take GU10 globes, I will be putting LED GU10s in them.
I also appears that the brickwork around the Laundry door has been re-done after door was removed and straightened up.
