It’s been a pretty busy weekend for us, we’ve had family visit from interstate to celebrate our son’s 7th birthday and our daughters christening the following day, whilst renovating. Not that we expected help, but we were so lucky to have family over to help us with the build while visiting.
With a lot of muscle power we were able to move the bifold door out to the back of the house. For months we were storing it on our front patio, blocking the sunlight into our front living room. After a bit of fiddling around, the door has now been installed and in its place.
I was a bit worried about the colour I had chosen as I saw some pictures of black bifolds that looked really good! But I think these are still great and are quite neutral.
Seeing through the windows
Today family have decided to extend their stay to help with the installation of the windows. SO grateful for their help and handy work!! They’ve been incredibly amazing. And all their hard work is paying off because the house is looking great! It’s nice to know that there’s a piece of the house where family has put a hand in, whether it be picking up broken roof tiles or nailing in wall braces. We certainly wouldn’t be where we are now without their help and extensive building knowledge.
Sarking
Now that the door and windows are installed, the men work on wrapping the house in sheets of sarking. Apparently 1 roll of 81m2 is going to be enough to cover the entire extension. When this is complete its going to really put some perspective on the interiors. It will be pretty dark too.
