In the woods with.....new stairs

You may recall the stair company did not follow the construction diagrams and as a result stairs were installed that were too intrusive into the corridor. As a result, the stair company re-measured and replaced the last three stairs. We are happy with the result.

 See below for before and after pics

Before

After -  much more room in the corridor now

In the woods....with stairs!

Last week the stairs were finally installed however they protrude into the corridor  . We spoke to our SS who agreed that something should be done about it in the New Year. I think the problem arose when we reduced the width of the house...Problem is the architect didn't reduce the bottom two stairs to accommodate this. Our SS says it shouldn't really hold things up too much, maybe a day or two.

I really like the look of them however I think the bottom stair will need to be resized to the second last stair

YOU can see how much corridor it takes up in this front entry pic


Upstairs

They are not the best style of stair for a two and three year old

In the woods.....with a pre-Xmas Update

Did the drive by about an hour ago and noticed the garage door had been installed. Its Dune in colour but sometimes looks, grey sometimes white, and sometimes cream depending on the light. Our bricks have the same illusion, sometimes black black, sometimes brown.......

Spoke to my SS who said the plan was to:
- Install stairs will happen next Monday
- The carpenters will return next Wednesday and work through the Xmas break
- Timpelle Kitchens booked tentatively for 17 January
- The Admin people at the No-Name Building company cant find my paperwork for Di-Lorenzo so this cant be booked in for January yet. Fingers crossed they find it today.

No Name Building company and our SS officially close for Xmas next Friday and re-open on the 9th January. We are so pleased that they have organised tradespeople to work through.
