Bricks, bricks and more bricks

So someone pointed out that we'd not posted any pictures with bricks going up as of yet, so here they are.

Front of house, pillars growing and window surrounds.

Two sides of the same wall.

Rear of house.

Then one day later, more bricks....

Same shot one day later....

Right wall of garage.

Rear of study and pier from the alfresco.

And then the wife snapped this on her way past today....

Onwards and upwards as they say.........

Frame almost complete

So with a good few days of sunny weather we have an almost complete frame!

Second Story...

A day and a bit of sunlight later and we have the second floor frame almost complete and the windows on site ready for installation...

Frame progress and moving well

So its been a busy week for the builders, even though I thought they would be delayed due to the fact it has poured with rain on and off all week they've actually made some good progress, without the rain they'd probably be close to finishing!

Anyway some shots from the week and some close-ups taken today to follow, only one are of concern to us at the moment but we will wait until next weekend before raising it with the site supervisor if required.

This was taken on 02 Nov.

By the afternoon of 03 Nov this was what had been acheived.

As of today this is what the site looks like, from the inside!

Anyway we are hoping the second story will be in place by the end of next week weather permitting and maybe some of the roof trusses as well, finally we have something that looks like a house!
