Internal fit out & Trim still happening.

Day 133,  After slow progress for the past 2 weeks, finally the kitchen cabinets turned up ready to be installed. There has been small progress with some of the internal finishing work, Architraves now installed and some minor patching up getting ready for the paint stage. The internal finishing carpenters seem to be there only for a few hours a day at the moment - why so slow ?.

The retaining wall contractors have been there today starting the wall between the neighbor to the west - wish they had not - all wrong !!  They had installed a product called Ironwood - this product is for NON structural walls , posts and general garden use only.  Then why did they try to use it for the main structural wall ? Who knows  !! ....in hand with the builder to sort out - rip it out and start again -but they need to install the correct products as per the engineering drawings I say....see if Ashford Homes comes up with the correct decision. More on this in further blogs.
Our side fence on the East side was installed today - the neighbors on this side wanted the extra privacy to their windows.

Retaining wall - used wrong product for this application.
