What’s Up?

While I’ve been lying idle in bed with this bout of Bronchitis, what’s been happening on the building front? Actually many small things, some finicky stuff, and some waiting. Waiting seems to be an important aspect of house-building in New Zealand…

Z1
(Above): Monday before my symptoms developed fully, I back-primed and first-coated the fascias for the first floor roof at Tyler’s bedroom and TV room. Use Karaka Solagard.

Z2
(Above): Tuesday saw Vaughn and his brother arrive. They prepared the surfaces and laid all the flooring in one day. Here he is busy in the bedroom

Z2a
(Above): Near the end of the day, as Vaughn prepares to clean up and go home. Neat job.

Z3a
(Above): John busy with repairs to the deck outside the main bedroom of the existing house

Z4
(Above) Marcel puits the finishing touches to the rail/seat on our new deck. Almost done.

Z5
(Above): The painters are progressing very slowly, but are nevertheless making progress. It should be complete in a few more days. Hopefully…
