Our Build

Diary

Earthworks are a-go!

Man, things are happening pretty quickly now…as soon as Ray & Garrick had the profiles in place, the earthwork contractors, Stu & Mike, were on site working their magic as they formed our building platform, nailed the levels and put in some drainage. And after only a couple of days, she’s looking pretty sharp even if we do say so ourselves!

The first cuts being made where our cars will eventually park below the living area.

The area under our living area fully excavated out - pretty deep. Will have a couple of retaining walls eventually around here, holding up the house and the banks.
