There is about a day’s work for the carpenter to do…to put in some more support for one of the beams, etc. Carpenter doing external stairs and some of the concrete holes are not in the right place.

More running around getting hardware for the frame carpenters. This is their last day here.They did the frame for the wardrobe and stair walls and the window in the lounge (which had been an oversight). They’ve been pretty good and very pleasant to deal with.

Went to site primarily to paint the weatherboards, cyprus pine. These need to be painted on both sides, but before that the knots need to be separately primed with a special sealer to prevent them bleeding through the timber. Contacted Dulux to find out what kind. Had help from a labourer. This is not a [...]
