Week 2 - Building

One week down and many more to come at Lords Place.
Last week the boys got so much done, with no problems we were beginning to think this building gig was easy... until yesterday, Monday morning the beginning of Week 2 of building, Nick and I discovered that we had ordered a couple of items incorrectly, therefore bathroom might be delayed by a week.. or two!

So it turns out the mirror was a wee bit small, both being giants, we have to get a custom made mirror to sit behind to vanity and stretch all the way to the ceiling. And our shower screen (glass panel) is far to big. We ordered a 1000mm, received a 1200mm, which means the walk in access into our new shower would be about ummm.. 400mm - I mean Nick and I are svelte but not that svelte, so I'm now in the process of trying to find a new glass panel to fit this space, again we might have to get one custom made ($$) Yippee! The joys of renovating just gets better.

On a happier note the wall to make the 3rd bedroom went up today, finally we can start seeing and visualising what the "old/ original" part of the house will look like. Chip rockers' will be there until the end of the week and then... let the tiling begin!
