Weeks 4 & 5 - From Trusses to Glass

So MUCH has happened since the 13th of December, our last  post.  

Since the 13th:

  • ·      Trusses are up
  • ·      Eco-ply up
  • ·      Flashings up
  • ·      Windows in
·   
All of this has been done between the 13th and the 23rd - in just 9 days.

Here is a brief summary in photos:

Trusses up!



Ecoply, awaiting installation
Eco ply up!



The house is looking great, it is really beginning to look like a house :) 


Flashings (this silver bits) are added to protect the Ecoply seams



Windows arrive


We were really excited about the windows.  I didn't think they would be so big or look so nice.




and they function too!  Gavin giving a demonstration...


The roof was also mostly installed - pictures at the next blog.  There is one patch that is missing, so we will be in touch with the roofers to find out the why once the New years holiday in NZ ends.

Additionally an in wall vac has been installed and some wiring too!

All in all, despite the roofing hick up, things are looking grand.
