Building makes time go slower....

On Monday 13 we had a meeting on site with the site manager to talk about our most recent issues. A few of them we were dead right about. However, rather then apologise the guy would just say " that's an easy fix'. What if we weren't so observant? Would we just  have had to put up with the mistake forever?

One of the things that couldn't be fixed was the annoying plumbing in two of the wardrobes. He will encase them in mdf so they are less noticeable. We reiterated several times our annoyance at this never being on the plan, if it had we could have planned around it, put it in a better location. 

We thought they had put provisions in for gas (we aren't having any gas connections) but the manager said it was actually just where the main water supply was going to run into the house. Which makes sense....except the hose they had there split in to two (our water goes to the solar upstairs or booster out the back to warm up) and then a few days later the hose completely disappeared. Fancy that!

The only progress that week was the lowering of the scaffolding to allow the painters to paint the eaves. The following week the only progress was that the electrical work was started. I don't know much about electrical work but it seemed like good progress for a week. For two weeks though and with them trying to catch up on all the lost time due to errors, it doesn't seem good enough.

The site manager did say he was hopeful he would be finished BY June....We shall see!
